"Today marks a fresh start for California, as we prepare to replace the costly, harmful and ineffective system of prohibition with a safe, legal and responsible adult-use marijuana system that gets it right and completely pays for itself," initiative spokesman Jason Kinney said in a statement. The measure would also establish a system to license, regulate and tax sales of marijuana, while allowing city governments to exercise local control over or disallow commercial distribution within their borders.

"adult-use" lmao I'd bet money that more teens will be smoking it than adults.

 

It's really not difficult to just have a 21-year-old buy weed for you if you're underage. The age minimum is basically worthless in that regard.

I believe the regulation is that you're not allowed to have over 10 ounces of marijuana, yet allowed to have x amount of plants to grow. One plant has the potential to yield more than half a pound, which is 8 ounces right there. It was implemented into the regulation to make people sell it to dispensaries or on the streets - the only other option would be to illegally have over 10 ounces.
