RE:RE:DC moves closer to legalize cannabis I think that there is lots of weed around, it just needs to cross borders and State lines. DC is going to need all the tax revenue and jobs it can get and potpreneurs can deliver on that, if the lawmakers and regulators do something amazing with decriminalization, legalizing or a fair and honest launchpad at the Federal level to streamline and dummy down the laws such that business people that are investing and taking risk get it minimalized.
The "War on drugs" crowd need to move forward and get some legislation that the great US business community can legally study on the medical effects of different stains of cannabinoids to do catch up to what patients already know. Health conscious consumers are seeking out strains based on their own personal experiences with relieving ailments. CBD's are gaining ground against Big Pharma opiodes and with THC beverages edging into Big Alcohol's territory with promises of less calories and sugar which a good portion of the consumer base should give serious consideration.
Special strains and spliced gene products are going to make their way to the top of the sales chain for both pharma use and recreation. The potential of these is mostly untested to the degree that is going to be required for them to make claims although there are a couple that have made the grade by doing the work. Charlotte's Web and GW Pharma have qualified and it shows in their shareprice.
Imagine when they come up with a weight-loss strain or a high energy strain that can pass muster by the watchdogs.
The potential hasn't gone unoticed by US MSOs and Canadian LPs and others, but it is an expensive process and it is best to have government support than where we are right now with over-regulation.
C'mon Schumer, get 'er done and get out of the way of the biggest greenrush the world is going to see.
