Why Starting A Marijuana Business Is So Hard | Big Business

Starting a weed business isn’t easy. It can take $1 million in startup capital to even get a license. And to keep a cannabis business going? That means jumping through complicated regulation hoops. If they can play the game right, cannabis entrepreneurs could be set up for success in an exploding marijuana industry. But with weed still federally illegal, companies could face fines or jail time if they don’t follow the rules. We visited three companies in Colorado and Oregon to see how they’re dealing with the ever-changing regulations. Could things get easier if weed becomes federally legal?

    This color shit is SO annoying about buisness: I am white and most cannacompany are own by rich people whatever there color. Middle class and, of course poors, can’t create a production/distribution system. Only rich fuckers can.

    Eeerrrr. Cry cry cry. White privilege, blame you for my hard ships. Nothing is my fault.

    Interesting how the illegal product becomes legal as soon as a licensing fee is paid.

    Teenagers don’t smoke potto be cool they smoke it to get high.a lotof teens around my hood were smoking before the legalization and they still are not to mention a lot more started after the legalization.the legalization of weed has only made it easier for teenager to get their hands on it because they can buy a fake ID and buy it at the liquor store not to mention swipe it from their parents.cannabis shouldn’t be legal it should be decriminalized.

    Дану это уже перебор злоупотребления влечёт плохие последствия наверное🤔😑. (пользоваться блатом) но говорят же куй железо пока горячо 🤷‍♂️ (не хайп а просто это удачу испытываю нечего больше) ну а что 😑☹️



  8. Mon Slay on May 16, 2022 at 4:29 pm

    50 cents per tag!?!?!? OMG!!!



  9. Lyons T-BAG on May 16, 2022 at 4:30 pm

    I still can’t believe the government ever got the power to make weed illegal. Alcohol is way worst and causes so much violence across the world.



  10. Stacks will do it on May 16, 2022 at 4:37 pm

    It’s not hard at all when you got plugs to credit you up to 100 pounds and have access from California . Starting up is actually very easy



  11. Mike on May 16, 2022 at 4:40 pm

    Stop with this race bs bro 🤦🏽‍♂️stop black washing



  12. Vintius45 on May 16, 2022 at 4:40 pm

    From my former use, It gave me psychosis and extreme bad trips. I get that even from natural weed. It’s the THC that can contribute on developing paranoid psychosis and other mental illness in some people



  13. RikuNiskanenMoi on May 16, 2022 at 4:42 pm

  14. Queltamas on May 16, 2022 at 4:42 pm

    Complete bs.
    I could literally manufacture a supplement only containing cement powder and couch dust yet no one would ever come knocking on my door unless a consumer became sick and it was traced back to the supplement which would trigger an investigation. Then I could simply declare bankruptcy and start all over with a different company name.



  15. beep boop on May 16, 2022 at 4:42 pm

    more anti-white propaganda, you people are evil.



  16. Syke Cherry on May 16, 2022 at 4:44 pm

    This wasn’t even informative it was just a bunch of millennials complaining about life being unfair

    For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. (Romans 6:23)
    Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind, Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God. (1 Corinthians 6:9-10)
    And the times of this ignorance God winked at; but now commandeth all men every where to repent: (Acts 17:30)

  26. justl16 on May 16, 2022 at 4:53 pm

    I’m manifesting that Texas will legalize it in the next decade



  27. walter parker on May 16, 2022 at 4:54 pm

    Kindergarteners could devise more comprehensible regulations. They’re just trying to make up for the money they’ll miss out on due to the lack of weed arrests…bastards!



  28. imho on May 16, 2022 at 4:57 pm

    Gee with the amount of cash you need it’s just as well that the bikie gangs can keep up the supply!



  29. Chris Jannise on May 16, 2022 at 4:58 pm

    People need to acknowledge that poor whites exist as well. Just being white does not make one wealthy. There are disadvantaged people who are white. No one ever seems to care about those people!!!



  30. Niki 9ine on May 16, 2022 at 4:58 pm

    What does black and brown owned mean?



  31. Vanilla Ski on May 16, 2022 at 4:58 pm

  32. Ryan Mcgee on May 16, 2022 at 4:58 pm

    It’s always the white male fault when minorities don’t get their way.

  37. That's NotMe on May 16, 2022 at 5:07 pm

    An ounce from an illegal source: $50
    An ounce of the same weed from a taxed source: $600



  38. Steven Fetzer on May 16, 2022 at 5:08 pm

    Aka why starting any business is difficult. Government intervention.



  39. Vidal Moreno on May 16, 2022 at 5:09 pm

    What the matter with Texas wake up and look around you get your boot off people’s neck there’s money to be made put an age limit on it and get on with the program and let freedom ring out law alcohol 😡😡



  40. Веско Динев on May 16, 2022 at 5:09 pm

    11:00 claimed legalize when the text specifically says decriminalize. Big brain move there. 😐



  41. Paint Jawn on May 16, 2022 at 5:10 pm

    Remember all the people STILL in prison, for making money on weed, in a country where weed is illegal



  42. Pr0m3teus on May 16, 2022 at 5:10 pm

    how come that this is about race? 10:20 noone cares which race is most affected. use the smallest group, the individual.



  43. Menacing Mollusk on May 16, 2022 at 5:11 pm

    Man Biden is really coming through huh? Student loan forgiveness, nope legalize weed, nope insane inflation and ww3 you betcha!



  44. Butch420Cassidy on May 16, 2022 at 5:12 pm

    It’s pretty sad that it’s 2022 and still your skin color is the deciding factor in wether or not your eligible for a loan… How is this not racist?? What bc it’s the white farmers getting screwed over it’s no longer considered racist?? When skin color is the determining factor on wether or not u get a loan, that’s like the definition of Racism people



  45. One Above All on May 16, 2022 at 5:14 pm
