Grow your own

Mark Kleiman modifies his grow your own proposal for pot policy:
That then suggests yet another option: in addition to allowing production for one's own use or for gift, perhaps the law could allow the formation of consumer-owned co-operatives, limited in size, barred from advertising and from selling other than by mail-order. Each co-op would be required to produce its own material rather than buying it from manufacturers or wholesalers. That system would provide much though not all of the convenience, choice, and potential tax revenue of the alcohol model, without creating an another addiction-promotion industry.
He also explains his rationale. Read the whole thing.
