The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s. Today, many opportunities exist for individuals and businesses that want to engage in the industry. Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.

Do high THC levels cause psychosis? That’s been the mantra of the modern cannabis temperament movement. Since cannabis can’t cause a fatal overdose and appears relatively benign (compared to most pharmaceutical drugs), public health busybodies had to find a new angle.

Graphic warnings on cannabis packaging have to be the dumbest idea in the world. Canadian legalization already has a problem with the continued existence of the “illicit market.” The government arbitrarily caps edibles. They also increase the costs of production through unnecessary regulatory hurdles. The plain-packaging rules harm producers trying to differentiate their products from others.
