It wasnt legalized to bring large amount of jobs.Clearly, I wasn’t the only one sleeping. The legal demand is no where near what legal grows are outputting, much less the need for so many grows. This has been analyzed and assessed both by OMMA and outside agencies. The illegal grows only exist because Oklahoma screwed the pooch when they allowed that abomination of a proposition to pass. Therefore unless the name is American Cannabis Company (in the metro) or just so happened to be in a small town with little to no competition you’re not making a profit. The majority of Grows are also not turning a profit and most are underselling their product because the demand is not their. Basic economics tells me that is a stupid business model and an even more stupid one to get into. The low number of jobs are not enough to justify all the bad it has brought in.
It was legalized as a State Question on a ballot and it passed because the majority wanted it to.
There is always bad players to take any advantage of things like this WHEN THERE IS MONEY TO BE MADE.
Tell me what bad its brought (besides the bad players), and use facts this time, not uneducated opinion.
The Chinese (Asians) are the majority of the illegal market, they are turning a profit or they wouldnt be doing it.
