Big Pharma won’t be happy about marijuana

Seventy-two U.S. senators accepted donations from the pharmaceutical industry ahead of the 2020 election. That number was 302 for the House. Combined, that’s more than two-thirds of Congress.

If that makes you sick to your stomach, you might want to sit down for this: More than 2,400 state legislators around the country cashed checks from drug lobbyists, including 82% of state lawmakers in California, which has a deep blue legislature. That’s on par with 84% of lawmakers in Louisiana, a state redder than Mississippi, in case you are tempted to see this as a partisan problem.

In 2021, the lobbying industry broke its overall record — eclipsing $3.7 billion — with experts pointing to Congress’ renewed effort to lower prescription costs as the primary driver behind the spike in pharma spending. Apparently, some people are happy with the status quo and are willing to fight for it.

What does your post have anything to do with this article? Profit making? CURA is busy growing the business, State by state and growing in the EU. Your post is clear, you are shorting. All good.

Not shorting at all but I did take losses earlier this year on this junk.  Pretty hard to short marijuana stocks as they rolled down the toilet. But look at the basic company financials the losses per share increase in equal rate to the sales . Increase sales should reduce the amount of losses as there's large fixed costs. If increased sales mean increase losses the business model is ...more

Amazon lost money for 5 years before they made a minor profit 4th quarter 2021 Shopify lost 345 million when companies are scaling there business as rapidly as Curaleaf they often lose money that being said Curaleaf would be extremely profitable already if the tax playing feild was level.
