People take a hit of that marijuana and the next thing you know they are shooting up heroin laced with fentanyl. Then they die

Surprise, it’s not the cash cow states thought it would be. They think there’s no limit on the taxes that can be levied. Turns out government still doesn’t understand basic economics.

The local dispensary lately just straight up gives you a free preroll for walking in. Kinda struck me as weird. Now I see why.

It's like any industry. There was a rush to get in on the new market, but in the end there will only be a few winners.

Not to mention the people opening these businesses are typically massive potheads and street dealers. I don't know how many people I know who bolted to Cali to sell weed, and these weren't the most enterprising of folks.

B-Real from Cyprus Hill was on Joe Rogan and he was talking about how much legal marijuana is taxed and because it is overtaxed, it has actually created a more sophisticated underground market.

I do think a lot of people jumped in the market and not everyone is going to survive, but frick state governments, they can't just be happy with allowing a new industry be legal, they have to tax the shite out of it to the point its not worth doing legal.
