MEDI-POT SHOP WOULD BRING JOBS

The notion that having a local dispensary for marijuana would be
counterproductive to "keeping marijuana out of teen's hands" is
utterly ridiculous. The only way a teen, or anyone else, could acquire
marijuana from a dispensary is to present a recommendation from a
medical doctor and valid identification. Just like how pharmacies work.

Opening a dispensary here locally would create jobs, create income for
the city and provide a legal means for recommendation holders to
acquire medicine without driving to another town.
