Jerry Brown looking for a Pot czar.

[calikid]

Edmond is looking for a Chief of Pot, other wise known as the head of the Bureau of Medical Marijuana Regulation, according to a report from the Sacramento Bee.

The job would entail everything from writing legislation for permits for growers, sellers, and buyers, to disciplinary actions for those that don't abide by the rules. They would also be the face of the bureau to media and consumers.

Why? Amendments to Bill SB1262-18102 add a position of "chief" or commissioner of pot to regulate the largely unregulated industry of medical marijuana.

7. Not realistic or practical for everyone, and besides several states have systems up and running

Which work just fine and are providing solid tax income for roads, schools, etc.

"Helpful" East coasters might want to take a look at their own catastrophic handling of the drug war, AND at how west of the Rockies we've managed to run our own affairs just fine out here --- before trying to "fix" our systems for us.
