Nobody in the USA wants anything like that.
The bad optics alone would be enough to convince Americans to go back to the War on Drugs.
Pharmacies and Liquor Stores need to be the only vendors of legalized drugs in order to keep the optics from becoming something that undercuts progress. Plant law would simply revert to how it was before the War on Drugs where people could grow whatever they want for personal use.

- grzm 3y agoYes, the submission is about California. Like many (most?) discussions on HN, topics wander, and this particular thread, starting at the top, we've already expanded beyond California: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37807408 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37807408 > "In downtown Toronto" https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37807592 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37807592 > "Nobody in the USA wants anything like that.

While California is big, it's not the entire US, and this particular thread is (taking the commenters at their word) is about more than just California.
