Dude I’m not disagreeing with you that all slavery is bad, and when that issue hits our ballot I will certainly vote in favor of ending it.

Assuming a NO vote would have won on our ballot for Amendment 3 this time… Would that have stopped prison labor?

The recreational industry licenses where literally just handed to literal prison camp owners.

The language itself states the purpose is to remove cannabis from the Black Market. Hint, prohibition didn't work, whatever he industry owners have planned won't work either but it's gonna suck for anyone caught up in the system.

Those people where just given the power, money, and influence to ensure it never hits the MO ballot. Part of the campaign messaging was shaming legacy/black market growers, they aren't hiding what they are doing.
