Not how it worked anywhere legalization has happened. All the growers in Humboldt lost money. Legalization dramatically lowered prices. With lower profit margins small independent farms can't compete. Larger corporations (cartel) take over and the weed industry becomes just like any other ag industry. Eventually Monsanto will run it. Not saying it is wrong because I would bet violence related to illegal grows has dropped. What it boils down to is our government needs to enforce anti-monopaly laws. Probably need to return patent laws to what they were intended to be as well.
Not if they throw enough money at it. They'll have a huge advertising campaign and you'll be scratching around banks looking for a loan. Plus they'll probably be having a word with their pet politicians about making life hard for you.
And the buyout thing? Sure, it can be a sweet enough deal for the person being bought out but we were looking at the bigger picture.
The other places will be large corporations and they'll either buy you out or create their own market share from scratch.
Okay so you get an instant payday and retire early. Sounds good to me (and probably a lot of other people).
Which will take time, giving you the opportunity to stay one or more steps ahead of them.
