Some technicalities I think like not legalizing paraphernalia or something. Legislature used this excuse to completely gut the previous measure. Citizens measure required dispensaries to be non profit and locally owned, also allowed multiple dispensaries in a geographic area, which would provide competition and a variety of products for patients. They intentionally created a monopoly in each city in ND and also monopolized growing, allowing only 2 growers in the whole state. Further more it allowed/encouraged out of state pot businesses to become involved and completely eliminated the option for patients to grow their own meds, likely the only way many users would be able to afford cannabis. They jacked entry prices into the business so high, only an elite few could even consider producing or selling product. They cut back significantly on who will be allowed to use medical, qualifying conditions.There are literally THOUSANDS of strains of cannabis and they affect different people differently. One of the cornerstones for any medical or legalization scheme is allowing people to grow their own meds or product, this would keep retailers honest and not allow them to charge exorbitant prices. This was removed of course, no patient or caregiver can produce cannabis to treat their own condition any longer. This is a plant, one that takes some skill to grow, but not enough to justify paying 100's of dollars / oz....</blockquote>
