A new report outlines policy options for who gets to sell psychedelics, and who can buy them.
The report was published by RAND , a think tank whose research has had major influence on government policy since its inception as a branch of the US Air Force in 1948 .
Legislation for retail psychedelics is already getting off the ground in some states, like the California Psilocybin Initiative .
RAND report lays out a taxonomy of options, including sales by a government authority, nonprofits, sales by for-benefit corporations, and full-on for-profit sales.
The logistics of retail psychedelics fall into one of two categories: supply architecture and design considerations.
A government monopoly on psychedelic sales has a few benefits, including monitoring product safety.
New York proposes a potentially reasonable way forward: psychedelic permits.
The bill would essentially take our approach to driving licenses, and adapt it for psychedelics.
People 18 and up would have to go through a health screening, take an educational course, and pass a test, after which they’d receive a permit to buy psychedelics from licensed vendors.
