Cannabis users have never had better access to marijuana products of every kind. There are quality cannabis flower products and edibles in more states than not, although it has been a hard road getting this far. As much as I love having legal weed, I don’t like the egregious prices I pay in nearly any state I visit that has legal recreational cannabis in addition to legal medical cannabis. Before moving to Colorado, I was a long time resident of Michigan. Until recreational cannabis was legalized in Michigan in 2018, I had a medical marijuana card in the state. I held onto that medical marijuana card because the tax on all recreational cannabis sales in Michigan is 10%. This starts to add up quickly if you’re at the dispensary at least once a week. But Colorado is even worse—the state government collects a 15% tax on recreational cannabis sales. It’s expensive enough to live here, but I guess they want to tax the hell out of cannabis tourists from out east. I have a medical marijuana card in Colorado so I am not subject to the 15% tax on recreational cannabis sales when I shop at weed stores in Denver. There’s a place in Washington Park just north of the University of Denver that I like to frequent the most. They have some of the best cannabis concentrates that I’ve tried in all of Colorado, particularly their live rosin and live resin products. Getting them at an affordable price with my medical card minus the 15% recreational tax makes it all worthwhile.
