    I think the real issue is they didn’t decriminalize recreational.

      Yep, weed is only for “certain people” who can afford a medical license. Tbh the reason they didn’t decriminalize weed is because the state doesn’t fund the court system. The courts in Oklahoma are funded by court cost and fines, so it would be a major hit to funding if they legalize recreational.

        It’s $100 a year. If you can’t afford that you can’t afford weed.

          That’s just the application fee, it’s usually around 200-300 to go to a MD that writes scripts. People are extremely impoverished in some places here, and they have been growing their own weed for a long time. They shouldn’t have to fork over their rent money to get permission to grow a plant.

            No. That’s the doctor appointment.

            If they are growing their own weed this doesn’t affect them.

              You still need a medical license to grow for personal use, which means you still need to go to a doctor who prescribes cannabis.
