The Big Business Of Cannabis

If you drive through states where cannabis is legal, you’ll see more dispensaries are popping up.   

Like in Colorado — one of the first to legalize recreational marijuana. 

There are over 500 dispensaries in Denver, more than there are Atarbucks in the state.   

It’s a trend seen beyond just the Mile High City.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 145 million Americans now live in a state where marijuana is legal, either recreationally or medically. 

So how did cannabis go from being illegal to a billion-dollar tax revenue generator for states where it is legal?
