UPDATE: I negotiated the right to post this piece, and have a slightly better version here, or at https://newrevenue.org/2015/10/20/picking-winners-to-grow-marijuana/.
Original April 2015 post read this way: “Picking Winners: Deciding Who Gets to Grow Marijuana Commercially” – an article I wrote (and waived the right to post) is here, or at http://marijuanalegalization.about.com/od/ModelsofLegalization/fl/Picking-Winners-Deciding-Who-Gets-to-Grow-Marijuana-Commercially.htm. Comments welcomed.
