Thrilled to be part of a team that demystifies cannabis policymaking for regulators and the public while incentivizing government transparency. In a time of artificial intelligence gaining popularity people might think a free chatbot and a free news site explain things the same, but they don’t. AI responses are neither smarter nor without bias. We use AI in copy editing and image generation, but always with editing by one of us. It helps me write summaries faster, but doesn’t accurately transcribe most sentences uttered, let alone capably explain what happened just because there’s a recording. Kudos to Gregory Foster for constantly pushing himself, and me, to offer sponsors and readers more clarity, context, and data without popup or banner ads, without ‘sponsored content’ or paywalls. Whether the knowledge we specialize in is useful to you, or you’re a supporter of local media and civic transparency, please consider becoming a sponsor of Cannabis Observer.

Check out this Q&A with the well-spoken activist Luna Stower who is also in the C-suite! I've had the pleasure of hearing her speak at a couple of international conferences and the world needs to hear what she has to say. She also made sure to get us all pleasantly stoned with delicious dabs at the after-party! Excerpt from the above link: "When California and other legal states voted on “legalization,” the average voter thought this meant decriminalization — taking away crimes against people using, gifting, gathering, growing, or possessing the plant. This over-simplified law actually instituted mass government commercialization (e.g., taxation, control, and regulation) that has given preference to well-funded stakeholders and operating in grossly mismanaged, inefficient, and overly bureaucratic ways that disenfranchise and disincentivize the average operator. Outsiders often think it is a highly lucrative space without knowledge of the cost and nearly insurmountable obstacles most operators face every day just to exist. Between a lack of legal protection, a lack of the 280E tax write-off, and limits on advertising and sales, we are in a constant uphill battle to close every quarter. This type of ignorance, that everyone in this industry is making money, actually harms the space."
