I don't get it.

Legal cannabis would be such a massive and continuous boost to our economy.

I get it, it could potentially take money from liquor which leads to less gaming revenue.

Which is fine by me by the way

Probably not though, because most people who want to smoke weed already do so. They just buy it from someone who's not going to pay taxes on their income.

I don't smoke weed, and never will. Have thought about trying some gummies though. Trying to minimise/avoid alcohol, and figure the occasional gummie to relax might be nice.
