    Nope, just read in a magazine that Ontario is the 'tokiest' place in Canada and Canada has the most people that blaze in the world.

    A lot of people I know have stopped smoking.

    But I'm still seeing kids walking up the hill to the park/forest near my park, so there's still people making friends with mary. It's just probably in your circle.

    I think people, at least around here, are cutting back or not smoking at all, because it's 1- so damn expensive.... 2- every time it changes hands, it gains 'price', and can get somewhat...mistreated...so the product is starting to go down in quality, because nobody's got the cash for top end, and then when people do buy, the price has been boosted up so damn high it's ridiculous for what you're getting.

    A lot of people are getting turned onto growing their own, and so they're also building up their supplies, and just buying for 'fill in' between crops, or if they burn low...which they're picking up crap, and it's just making them more determined to grow their own.

    this likely isn't everywhere, mind, but I know in texas, at least in this area, yeah...it's true. we don't get dank bud here, as all the people that can get it want to take it further north or east and sell it for a bigger profit.

    how old are you kid?

    In nearly 11 years of puff, there are only three reasons why a dealer can't move his products ime.

    1. SHITTY PRODUCT compared to whatelse is readily available in the area

    2. SHITTY PRICE compared to whatelse is readily availabe in the area

    3. Supply outpaces demand. Simple economic theory To beat their competitors good dealers will then increase quality or decrease price, leaving the guy with excess as #1 or #2

    because the clientele is going other places for
    better stuff or better price. Great is superior to good my man

    The demand is not going down. I've not had a hard time at all selling, but where I live I'm the only one not selling seedy shake shit (in my age range anyways) so lots of people have been coming to me. Mind you I live in a small town.

    Don't count on it, only thing thats gonna happen is the crime rate is gonna raise. Right now in Florida its insane, I think Florida is at a 50% graduation rate now, Everyone who doesn't graduate is just robbing , stealing, or selling. Can't wait til I move to Cali or Ontario.

    I guess it all depends on whether you consider weed a "normal" product or a "neccessary" product. I guess most of the people you live around consider it to be normal because you say they're not buying as much. It's simple economics, we're in somewhat of a recession right now so luxuries, like weed, are gonna go down a bit in demand because people have less money to spend on something they don't absolutely need.
