That's the thinking of idiot lib stoners who had zero concept of how business works, let alone understand, if you actually make money, politicians will find a way to steal it.
When this whole thing was being proposed, I warned them the state would steal and tax them into oblivion, that what you consider freedom, will cost you even more in the end.
Now they're back where they were, only now weed/bud costs 20 times what it used to before the state created the illusion of freedom.

"The state isn't leading in a way that would make locals feel [they had] a pathway to success," Mr. Kiloh said. "People are just leaving."
MedMen is the latest retailer in California's troubled cannabis industry to close its doors.
On March 25, High Times Holding Co., the publisher of the recreational marijuana magazine, and other media brands, suddenly walked away from its 13 dispensaries owned in the state.

Cannabis operations in Blythe, San Bernardino, and Coalinga were permanently closed after months of failing to pay taxes, rent, and health insurance premiums, according to employees and other reports noted by CRB Monitor, an online database for the cannabis and marijuana banking industry.
