For the Culture By The Culture
From Florida’s ballot grind to Thailand’s backpedal and Germany’s retreat, the world talked reform while tightening control. Pot Culture Magazine’s Reefer Report Card Vol. 22 grades the week in weed — a reality check on promises, policies, and politics that keep legalization crawling instead of sprinting. Global momentum stalled, but the culture keeps moving.
Reefer Report Card Vol. 15 breaks down the week in cannabis. Texas raised age limits on hemp THC, California cut taxes to stop the bleeding, Ohio sales surged while bans held firm, Germany’s scientists pushed for oversight, and the White House talked rescheduling without action.
From Texas to Germany, cannabis legalization laws are riddled with loopholes that keep prohibition alive. Learn how possession limits, local bans, and vague enforcement terms undermine access, protect corporate weed, and fuel the black market. This guide exposes the red flags so you can spot fake legalization before it takes root.
The relationship between medical marijuana use and employment rights is complex, with varying protections across regions. In the U.S., states like California, New York, and Connecticut offer significant protections, while others like Louisiana and Florida do not. Internationally, while Canada has reasonable accommodations, European countries provide inconsistent support. Employees must understand local laws to navigate this landscape effectively.

California will introduce consumption lounges; Germany is legalizing cannabis, aiming to reduce the black market; Thailand has reversed legalization, and Morocco seeks to dominate cannabis exports. Consumers must stay informed and engaged amidst these changes.
