    Fuck off elton. You know as well as anyone the same can be said for alcohol. As a legalization person I am very disappointed in at least the illinois legalization. It does not allow for private grow for everyone and puts to much money into to small of hands. In addition all the adult entertainment should have severe advertising restrictions. They should be restricted to only having adverts in other adult businesses. So liquor stores, dispensiaries, gambling establishments, bars, etc. stores should not be able to advertise liquor but just have the section with prices and thats it. Same with restaurants. We should totally allow adults to do these things but it stay out of the general public space.

      Illinois is especially bad on catering to this shit. I agree, their cannabis laws suck, but I also hate that every bar also has slot machines. Let’s encourage two addictions at once and make every place you can get a drink a place you can also lose your shirt!

      I’m just on the Indiana side of the Indiana/Illinois border and I appreciate being able to drive half an hour to a dispensary, but Illinois “vice” laws are seriously fucked up.

        yeah we are so close to having good things but the corruption always spoils it. Its the traditional democrat half a loaf. I would rather have the half a loaf but what I would really like is a well baked, well made, full loaf. This is not a both sides things, btw 4 the peanut gallery. Half a loaf is way better than no loaf. We are super lucky to be positioned to draw tax money from so many states though. Yeah though I would like it not to be apparent that anything is legalized when driving through the state but see a bar or liqour store and boom you can get all the info you need. I agree with the slot machines but honestly I would rather not allow the internet stuff. You want to gamble then get off your ass and go to an establishment. If internet was not allowed I sorta can see why bars would be allowed like sports book and slots.
