😚💨 Just like with alcohol or caffeine, consumers self-titrate their cannabis consumption based on product strength.
NORML has consistently pushed back against the imposition of arbitrary THC potency limits on state-legal cannabis products, arguing that consumers distinguish between higher-potency and lower-potency cannabis products and moderate their consumption accordingly.

🚨 Question 8 is not about promoting the health and safety of Massachusetts residents; it is a trial balloon by a prohibitionist interest group intent upon rolling back legal cannabis markets nationwide.
