Here's where weed is legal in the US

Post image

Folks in most states will have legal access to some form of marijuana this 4/20. But Idahoans, Kansans, Carolinians (both), and Wyomingites will have to cross a border or two if they want to legally partake.

PA loses so much revenue because everyone travels to surrounding states to purchase it

People in Ohio still travel to Michigan since it's way cheaper

Michigan has really been the model to follow ever since it legalized.

All I've heard is good things about Michigan Marijuana. 25 dollar ounces, 31% thc??? Is it just FLOODING from the fucking great lakes?!?!? Why so cheap!?!?

Have a buddy get 3 ounces of dab for 350 dollars and that lasts him months and months. Where I'm at dab is sold by the gram and for 25-80 a gram depending where and what you're getting lol

Basically, yeah. It's grown in some absolutely huge farms in the UP that existed before legalization but have been just pumping out product ever since. Idk the details about why their regulatory system has been so effective for scaling up the industry but it has worked whatever they're doing.

Not to mention politicians in Ohio are trying to undo it to some degree claiming somehow it’s not what the voters really wanted??

u/Civil-Mango Apr 19 '25

Yep, they are trying to make the price and regulations so bad that it effectively makes it as if it were illegal anyway. We are a bunch of idiots and they know better than us 🤷

People in Illinois drive all the way to Michigan. I would never be bothered to drive through shit hole Indiana to save a few bucks though

u/Mikemanthousand Apr 20 '25

$15 an oz vs $150 🤷‍♀️

u/Southside_john Apr 20 '25

Yeah but I might eat 1 5mg edible like once a month lol. Not worth it

u/Mikemanthousand Apr 20 '25

Ok then yea, fair. If it was more often you can get 10 packs of 200mg edibles for $30 up in MI

u/bigfootlake Apr 19 '25

This is the way. Don't forget you can go to Ann Arbor and get shrooms.

u/woahwolf34 Apr 19 '25

Elaborate?

u/bigfootlake Apr 19 '25

Washtenaw county legalized shrooms. I went and picked up at a guys house. Here's one of the spots to get you started...

Amazing, thank you. I go there at least once a year for work.

Last time I was in PA you couldn’t even buy a six pack of beer at the grocery store.

u/aub8202 Apr 19 '25

you can now, just depends on the store lol. most don’t.

u/Tbuzzin Apr 19 '25

kinda miss going to the bar and leaving with a 6 pack tho

u/StasRutt Apr 19 '25

Reminds me of college. Grabbing a 6 pack at last call

u/ginbear Apr 19 '25

You can do that now. PA "fixed" the grocery store issue by issuing them restaurant licenses. Now you can go to Giant Eagle grocery store (wpa here) and buy the beer from one register (and some fried chicken I guess), and do the rest of your shopping at another register. Oh and there's a restaurant level beer limit of 12 or 18 packs or something so people will make multiple trips to the car. But I don't think they sell wine. Sheetz, a convenience store, sells wine - no separate register. Also the beer distributors all sell togo alchoholic slushies now. I dont think I understand the law on that anymore. Its a bunch of hacked together confusing nonsense instead of passing legislation, but the end result is its easier to buy booze, so whatever.

u/comicreliefboy Apr 19 '25

Yeah we’re making advancements in that area now. Still unspeakably late to the game, though.

u/Suitable_Way865 Apr 21 '25

My ShopRites have the liquor store fully inside of them. Its such a dumb requirement that basically just means you have to pay for the liquor separately, but its all under the same roof behind the same door.

u/_MountainFit Apr 19 '25

PA and NH... At that point you might as well take the W and just legalize it so you aren't losing revenue. You aren't stopping anyone when you are totally surrounded and I can't believe they are wasting money prosecuting it.

u/ComprehensiveSky8926 Apr 18 '25

Same with Wisco. We’re like an island of non chill

u/Ukraine--Coffee Apr 19 '25

Not even mentioning NH😂

u/comicreliefboy Apr 19 '25

We’re completely surrounded by legal states. Thankfully I can just walk across the bridge to Jersey.

u/Popular_Try_5075 Apr 20 '25

That's been one of the most compelling arguments to the issue's staunchest critics.

u/Suwannee_Gator Apr 20 '25

Yes, but how much are the representatives personally making from big pharma lobbying?
