That is a start anyway. Looks like a step in the right direction.
Yeah voting is compulsory in Oz, dunno about NZ. NZ is bad for meth so I don't think they'll legalise there for a bit as they tend to lump everything together there. Oz will do it but only once it can be taxed and regulated as the dollar is king here sadly

Preindustrial workers built huge industries based on the liquid's cleaning power and corrosiveness--and the staler the pee, the betterwww.smithsonianmag.com
The cleansing power of pee: If you’ve investigated the ingredients in your household cleaners, you may have noticed a prevalent ingredient: ammonia. As a base, ammonia is a useful cleanser because dirt and grease–which are slightly acidic–get neutralized by the ammonia. Even though early Europeans knew about soap, many launderers preferred to use urine for its ammonia to get tough stains out of cloth. In fact, in ancient Rome, vessels for collecting urine were commonplace on streets–passers-by would relieve themselves into them and when the vats were full their contents were taken to a fullonica (a laundry), diluted with water and poured over dirty clothes. A worker would stand in the tub of urine and stomp on the clothes, similar to modern washing machine’s agitator.
Even after making soap became more prevalent, urine–known as chamber lye for the chamber pots it was collected in–was often used as a soaking treatment for tough stains "

Touché.
There lies the motivation for regulation. Government is known to have their hands dipping in everything. Once they realize how much money there is to be made there, they will be soaking it up as fast as they can.
South Australia rode the closest line to legalisation a couple decades ago when you could grow from memory up to about a dozen plants with only an on the spot fine with no convictions if caught until the bikies got hold of the idea to set up a heap of dozen plant grows in cheap rental properties and put a sacraficial stooger in each house to tend and fucked it all up after only a couple years . Was a handy couple years though . Now it’s only one plant on the spot fine
That is not so worse. Well, depending on the fine amount.
I remember the Adelaide weed years
Yes mate that was probably the golden years of SA weed , the 80s also when all the so called Italian “ vegetable growers “ were mysteriously ending up with massive crops in glass houses . It was a bit of a laugh for me as here I was a young punk weed smoking reject while my brother in law was a drug squad detective doing all these big drug crop busts and tolerating me and my antics . I lived on the west coast though so we grew pretty much Independently to Adelaide although some of their weed did make it over to us . Personally I thought our weed which was usually more traditional Sativa was much better and we smoked the biggest size cones you could buy or turn out on the lathe while the city crew had their itty bitty little training day cones . We used to laugh at them as they probably did back at us . Loved those old time memories . Life was so much more laid back
