something must've driven the massive increase in grow activity up there. I'd think a massive expansion of the market due to legalizationis at least a plausible explanation.
Even if the ultimate cause of the problem turns out not to be legalization, the illegal grows are still the proximate issue, and need to be addressed.
- braingenious 4y agoCalifornia has been home to massive illegal grows managed by enormous violent crime syndicates for over half a century. It has served the global cannabis market for just as long. I genuinely have my doubts that this narrative that some hippy liberals signed some bill to legalize weed and it directly led to an enormous increase in illegal activity is anything but synthetically derived from cherry picked data. I agree that these grow operations are bad. They’ve been bad since the days of the advent of the Swanson TV dinner and The Twist being a nationwide dance craze.
