What does it take to build a thriving legal marijuana market?
Christina Dent and Bryan Mauk sit down with Geoffrey Lawrence, Research Director at the Reason Foundation, to explore the economic lessons from cannabis legalization across the United States.
Drawing on his unique experience as a researcher and a CFO in the marijuana industry, Geoff explains how smart regulation can undercut the black market, foster innovation, and create healthier communities.
They discuss the evolution of cannabis laws, what motivates legalization, and how future policy could open the door to interstate commerce, new products, and stronger legal markets.
