It's all demographics. The baby boomers are retiring. No more whizz quizes. Many are single and mobile. And the market crash in 2007-2009 burst their bubbles along with their 401k's.
They've had hip replacements, knee replacements and are on a dozen pharmaceuticals for blood pressure, cholesterol, depression sexual dysfunction and joint pain.
They are embracing the metaphysical, they are counting the days to their retirement, and planning their first joint in 35 years.
The timing for a brand of pot could not be better.
When the next crash comes, the chaos that will follow will make enforcement nearly impossible. And old farts who have sucked it up and made millions for the corporations who have tied up their achievements with non disclosure contracts and other nefarious documents, aren't going to worry about popping a few young mutant ninja turtles who bust down their door.
After the first surprise door kick-in, open season on ninja turtles may ensue.
And unlike in their past, the new retirees aren't going to want to buy from some neanderthal at a back alley location. The demand will be terrific. and $9 million of the 10 million he seeks will likely be used buying off the politicians. Terrific plan!
In the meantime, debt ridden states will jump on board and tax the hell out of the legally sold joints.
Interesting post!

Interesting, the Carver info. Thanks! I wonder if the fuel briquettes were the hemp product? Also, the soy plastic...what a wonderful use for the GMO soy being grown. It would stimulate the farm economy and (hopefully) get this toxic substance out of the human and pet food supply. I wonder, with that great mind, what he would have been able to achieve if the hurdles were not there. Or perhaps, the strength of will that he had to use to overcome the hurdles, helped to produce the greatness.

His greatness was in the wealth he obtained, and achieved through his contributions to many others, as this wealth out weights “all” others.

Yes, Zorg, I agree. I was only surmising that with fewer road blocks, he could have gone even further.

With regards to the article.
I would make another comment, but trying to maintain positive attitude.

We can only hope it's not GMO,the demon weed helps to repair the brain,many nasties found in the water,food supply and vaccines damage the brain,I suspect this is why the evil empire dislikes it so much these days.

When you look at the cost of a pack of cigarettes these days, you have to wonder what is so important about pot. Because, I'm sure, they could decriminalize pot and tax it and make a new stream of funds for ailing state governments.
Could it be that so many of the arrests and imprisonments are made after finding a tiny amount of weed on a police stop? It isn't the gateway drug so much as it is the gateway for the police to get into your business.
And if it were legalized, then would all those who are in prison for possession be freed?

Does everyone know about SKULL AND BONES??? SKULL AND BONES was originally established during 1832 at YALE UNIVERSITY! SKULL AND BONES are agents for the CITY OF LONDON and prominent "ILLUMINATI" MASONS! In fact, the FOUNDER of SKULL AND BONES was an "ILLUMINATI" MASON!
There is a significant difference between "ILLUMINATI" MASONS and FREE MASONS, because the FREE MASON lodges in Europe were infiltrated by the JESUIT ORDER starting May 1, 1776 at Bavaria, Germany! Johann Adam Weishaupt (February 6, 1748 – November 18, 1830) was a member of the JESUIT ORDER!
SKULL AND BONES, since 1832, have been the WORLD'S LARGEST DRUG TRAFFICKERS! A couple of EXAMPLES are IRAN/CONTRA (ran by George H. W. Bush Sr. (SKULL AND BONES) and FAST AND FURIOUS (initiated by illegitimate George W. Bush Jr. (SKULL AND BONES), according to Eric Holder (U.S. D.O.J.))! SKULL AND BONES want to have drug laws to keep the price HIGH for PROFITS, and SKULL AND BONES does NOT LIKE COMPETITION!
An interesting FACT, the author of the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION (former President Thomas Jefferson) grew Marijuana and, I believe, smoked marijuana! And, during the 18th Century and early 19th Century, there was "HEMP" (marijuana) ROPE for the UNITED STATES NAVY!
