    As marijuana legalization grows in the U.S., social equity has been a selling point. The goal is to have more Black people and and other people of color in ownership positions. But so far the desire for equity has far outstripped realities.http://apne.ws/BxjKpeI

        Do you really think a black person wants to put themselves directly in front of inspection of federal authorities and have a safe full of cash they can't deposit? Yall don't get it.

        Some people think affirmative action is the cure for everything. Just wave a wand and make it so.

        lol if anyone thought that the huge delay in marijuana legalization was not so that the rich people in power could figure out how they could get richer from it. Just lol if you thought they were gonna let some poors in on the fun

        You can’t get loans if you’ve been in legacy cannabis. Open up equity at the SBA, legalize it federally so we can bank, and allow interstate sales to level out competition. Anything else is mere lip service.

        Uhh because you need to be politically connected to get a license. It's not an open market

        That’s because, being federally illegal still, it’s very difficult to get a business loan...so, either you gotta have money...or have access to investors. Not a recipe for equity if only the haves can afford to buy in.

        Florida’s medical cannabis laws make it so expensive it’s obvious they’re trying to keep it away from poor people.
