Here in Illinois. Weed became legal at suspiciously the same time that opiates became...
1) more difficult to get due to changes in various regulations.

This is obviously an attempt to shift a big revenue stream from the pharmacorps to a new pie.
That new pie is divided between the state (licensing fees, taxes) and whoever can get permission to grow and sell (Governor Pritzker and his cronies).
It's all about money.
