An interesting article on CNN about the legalization of marijuana in Colorado and Washington. While many people assume that the legalization of pot will lead to large growth in the industry, strict federal and local laws still hinder many aspiring dispensaries from succeeding. Other hurdles that these potential businesses face is lack of available financing, due to the fact that banks want to avoid being involved in or associated with the drug industry, and a very high 25% tax rate.
