• <br /> 0 0 <br /> TESTIMONY <br /> December 23, 1998 <br /> RECEIVED <br /> To the Hawaii County Council 7 3 1 )3 5tr —__ <br /> ,e County wand, , <br /> Re: The mandatory study of marijuana eradication program in the <br /> County of Hawaii <br /> My name is meaningless. <br /> I'm just another grower that happens to live in Hawaii at this great and beautiful time <br /> period. <br /> This testimony is in regard to your marijuana study. Personally, I think you should leave the <br /> current system alone. <br /> The way it works right now is beautiful. All I have to do is go out maybe 5 times a year and <br /> I make good money. I don't have to do too much because the price is so high – 6 pounds <br /> and I make a good living. <br /> In before times, I used to have to grow 4 or 5 times the amount I do now to make the same <br /> amount of money. <br /> I love id <br /> I'm a grower. As long as the helicopters keep flying and they keep on raiding, the price will <br /> remain high, which is good because I am getting older and it's easier to grow less. <br /> Meanwhile, I feel its all dumb kids that you are busting (but how can you blame them since <br /> what you are saying is "dig a hole and make $5000). Now wouldn't you do it too if you <br /> were a wild go- for -it type of kid that has been watching people smoke for his whole life. <br /> One hole- 5000 bucks – come on! <br /> Of course you would, so most likely helicopters get the young, stupid kids with "chutzpah ". <br /> How long does it take this kid or an older grower like me to dig this hole – 1 hour = $5000 <br /> back if you make them through the whole season. And the whole Big Island to do it on! I <br /> just love it! <br /> I have learned over the years to go for far and few between, always give them air cover, <br /> always wear a mask and gloves. Leave no evidence. Fifty thousand dollars a year with one <br /> week of actual work. <br /> Hey, keep those choppers in the air. Please don't mess with the system. It works beautifully! <br /> Anonymous Grower 9 <br /> Comm. No. <br /> / <br /> Mlle Ne. P G <br /> Tot presented Covrre.ea_ <br /> Ref. a DEC 2 3 1Q9AI <br />
