It is astounding how many posters in this thread seem to think that this law will change the availability of this plant that is easily grown practically anywhere.

It won’t. Anyone looking for it can find it quite easily. It has been that way for decades.

The real difference is instead of wasting boat loads of money enforcing laws that have failed to be effective in the slightest, now we can at least begin to make this stupid weed start to feed income into government coffers via taxes and licensing instead of just draining those funds with expensive law enforcement resource hours and the associated ridiculously wasteful incarceration costs.
