Washington Awash In Pot

I was thunderstruck the other day to read that Washington’s booming marijuana biz is in an “economic nightmare” because of an overload of weed. What? I thought passing High-502, the initiative to legalize marijuana, was supposed to usher in a New Age of potsperity. On the contrary, it seems. This ganja glut has growers “struggling to survive,” reports a recent news story. Poor souls. But that’s not even the worst part of this story. The worst part is that this doobage disaster appears to be all our fault. To quote … “A big harvest of sun-grown marijuana from Eastern Washington last fall flooded the market.” Dude, I feel so bummed/ Doug Clark , SR. More here .

Question: Is it a good thing or bad thing that there’s so much pot in Washington that growers are struggling to survive?
