I bought 50g of loose tobacco for 27 bucks. I wonder if the weed would ever be as cheap as that.

A cigarette is roughly a gram of tobacco and costs less than a dollar each. Pot has shorter growing cycles, requires less water, produces more yeild per square foot, and gives much better profit margains.
No reason that we can't see AAAAAA+ flowers made into one oz pocket sized packages of pre-rolled joints. "Regular" could be 35 rolls per pack and "King size" could be 20 per pack, for instance.

It would be amazing if they allowed everyone to grow it, except for the sellers haha.

There’s no reason it can’t be but my genuine fear is that it’ll eventually be packaged and sold like cigarettes, addictive chemicals added and all.
I currently don’t have the means to grow but I’ve been investing some time researching it — It’s only a matter of time before I’ll be growing my own high quality flower.

If everyone starts growing indoors/outdoors then eventually it could be free, as it should be...fuck capitalism and fuck corporate ideology...small batch craft grown herb will always be the best!

I think you might be talking about the pre-rolls from FairCannaCare. I would avoid this. I've heard bad things about FairCannaCare flower (heavy dill smell believed to be vinegar sprayed to stop mold). The pre-rolls might be a different story because they're branded as Van City Rolls but I honestly believe the 2 companies are connected because it looks like FairCannasCare is the only MOM selling this brand.
Not worth the risk IMO.
