What happens to medicinal marijuana if prop 19 passes? Would it not really be worth getting the card since you can just get it at stores or are you not taxed when you buy it under medical circumstances?
I went ahead and renewed my card for another year. I figure even if it passes, it's going to take a while before supply catches up with demand. I think eventually the dispensaries will either start serving the public or they will shut down. You don't see a lot of folks buying "Medicinal Alcohol" at the pharmacy these days, but in the days of Prohibition, that was the only place to get it. I think it's going to take about a year for everything to shake out and I'd think having a medical card would add an additional layer of legal protection in the meantime.
I'm pretty sure the tax will still apply even with the card. I don't think it would be worth getting anymore.
