Pot town: Decker, MT

[wapiti11]

Drove by Decker last year noticed the town was for sale (4 buildings, including the house) next to the post office, and rough looking.

Drove by last week and cars parked everywhere, the town is a pot shop now.
Looked like Wyoming plates on the cars. Sheridan folks must be enjoying.

Also up the road at Kirby, MT that's a pot shop as well, I believe the sign at the bar read: blunts, butts and burgers.

Unreal...

I drive by Decker two to three times a month, Place is always busy. Ashland has three or four dispensaries, also always busy.

It’s legal in MT. Similar to what’s happening in other states where it is legal, and border states are not.

I drive through a Reservation in upstate New York on my way to my lease. We counted 37 dispensaries on the main street. Several offer a drive- through window!!

Illinois estimates 1/3 of its legal purchases are from non residents. They can’t legally track where you are from though. They also estimate around $100,000,000 in sales each month. With as much as 28% tax with state and local option taxes.

If I remember correctly, Montana voted to allow marijuana sales to fund natural resources? How is that working? Wasn’t there push a while back from some sticky finger politicians to steal that money for other uses?

Something like that^
A brief feel good moment.
"They" must have underestimated how much revenue would be generated. Maybe they were smoking the chit.

Hmmm...I've been looking for a place to retire.

My nieces have money for pot but no money to fix flats on their bald tires. Told my Mom to tell them to take a bus next time they call her for money.

I can smell this fictional place from here, and I don't think there are any babes to be forgotten.

It was going to fix all of our financial problems here too. Still waiting.

Didn't pan out here in Colorado either, despite the big promises made to get the legislation passed...

 

[SaskHunter]

It blows my mind that weed isn't socially/legally acceptable in places where booze is sold in every corner store, gas station, Walmart, grocery store, etc.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but Illinois is FUBAR.

Putting it lightly.

 

[MarvB]

Yeah in our state the “pot $” must have eloped with the “lottery $” neither seem to be around for anything of use!

First it was legal gambling that was going to fix all of Illinois' problems.

Next election they'll tell you that pot sales aren't cutting it and it's time to legalize prostitution. That'll surely solve all of the state's woes. Just think of the children...and public safety...
