Colorado's Medical Pot Business Is For-Profit, Regulated - and Thriving
Peter Hecht, McClatchy Newspapers: "In Colorado, America's second-largest medical marijuana market behind California, marijuana capitalism flourishes under strict regulations approved by the state Legislature starting last year... Colorado stores simply pocket cash as profit. And, under new mandates that stores grow at least 70 percent of the marijuana they sell, weed industrialization is flourishing. It is happening despite U.S. Justice Department warnings over attempted large-scale cultivation in California or suspected medical pot profiteering in other states."
The thriving medical pot business in Colorado and California may give hope to a million inmates now doing time for a victimless crime.
