My reasoning is that I don't like that the decision on whether an amendment is a monopoly would be left up to an appointed (not elected) committee (Issue 2). I'll be voting no on 3 for the obvious economic reasons (even though I support legalization). Legalization is an amazing opportunity for Ohians to egnage in entrepreneurial pursuits and the language limits that.

not arguing with your stance (as I've said, I'm not in the area and hagent followed it) but how would it limit the economic opportunities? People can still open regulated dispensaries (I assume with regulation similar to that of liquor stores) and head shops and the like. It would prohibit them from being large scale growers, but the people who can afford to do that and have the knowledge and desire aren't exactly common. You've got to have a good chunk of land, farming knowledge and at least a minimum amount of security.
