DRUG WAR ON TOMATOES
Hazardous marijuana grow operations are a direct result of marijuana
prohibition.
Legitimate farmers do not steal electricity to grow produce in the
basements of rented homes.
If [it were] legal, growing marijuana would be less profitable then farming
tomatoes.
As it stands, the drug war distorts market forces such that an easily grown
weed is literally worth its weight in gold.
