How medical marijuana is transforming the pot industry.

Post by Balou »

I ran across this article that was published in July 2008. It was a long and interesting read.

They were passing this Fortune magazine around at work and
I grabbed it for the night. Fortune is a very conservative
business journal and when they cover marijuana, then times are
changing.

If I read a few more articles like this, I might have to ignore the
earthquakes, high taxes, bad air and unaffordbale real estate
in California and move there.

The size is big for this picture but it was the only way
that you could see most of the strains that were in the
display case. First pages of the article.

It was interesting to read about the individuals who get their pot from the Feds. Can't understand how the US govt have been able to do this while on the other hand maintaining that marijuana has no medical uses.

Completely untenable in my opinion.
