Big money and a big stumble mark first year of Illinois’ recreational weed law – Politico

“There is particular national interest in Illinois from an equity perspective because it was the first to pass legalization through the legislative process rather than by referendum, which other states haven’t had,” said Shaleen Title, a former commissioner of the Massachusetts Cannabis Control Commission and a leading advocate for robust social equity programs.

Illinois has a “broke” mentality. They enter every policy discussion with this back seat
poverty mentality.

They are broke minded because they are deficient in their mental health and abilities.

Time to drain this swamp folks.

It seems like Illinois is being used as the testing ground for every lunatic progressive idea that they come up with. They just didn’t know how hard it would be to achieve social equity in the weed business. Should have asked the local gang bangers how to do it.

Ha! So true. Illinois manages to screw everything up – legal weed, vaccine distribution, driver’s licenses, local elections. The progressive utopia is really just a dysfunctional dystopia.
