Ethically, it depends upon where you get it. None of the pot I smoke is grown in "sweatshops" and I know this for a fact.
How?
EDIT: Given the public nature of this forum, I'm even a little uncomfortable posting what I just did. Just trust me, I know the provenance of the pot I smoke.
Fair enough. But the message should now be, if you are not sure where it comes from - dont smoke it

Do you apply that same standard to everything you buy at the grocery store? At the clothes store? Do you own a mobile phone (and do you know where the coltan it contains was sourced)? How about your TV and the components that make up the computer you are using?

Modern market capitalism makes slave owners of us all.


(EDIT: including me... not levelling an accusation, just pointing out that singling out cannabis is a little simplistic)
