> Would there even be a chance of a healthy weed market? From my perspective the market will quickly be saturated by big tobacco, since they already have all the plantation & manufacturing infrastructure needed to mass produce smoking products. It would depend on how the laws are structured, as well as market demand. Microbrews and local produce markets come to mind. They are popular precisely because they are not large: their smaller scale allows them to offer higher-quality and speciality products. I suspect something similar would show up very fast in the cannabis industry if the laws are structured to allow it.
