Gary Johnson is now in the cannabis business

From Vice.com
quote:
On Tuesday, Johnson announced he would become CEO of Nevada-based Cannabis Sativa. The founder of a successful construction company, Johnson served as New Mexico’s chief executive from 1995 to 2003 as a Republican. In 2011, he became a Libertarian and won the socially liberal but fiscally conservative party’s 2012 presidential nomination. On Reddit recently, he expressed interest in running for the White House again in 2016.
Johnson has long promoted legalizing marijuana, but his announcement represents an escalation in his advocacy — his salary is only $1 a year, but he’s got equity in the company, presumably meaning he expects profits to roll in.

Cannabis Sativa will make marijuana oils to treat children with epilepsy, along with cannabis-infused lozenges for adult fun.

Good to see him putting his name to something that's crucial to freedom in this country.
Fight the good fight Gary.
