Thursday, February 8th, 2024Minnesota “needs” 381 “cannabis dispensaries”, according to the same people who claimed that the state would have 20,000 Covid deaths, “best case”, by July of 2020.
And if you think that’s a curious number to arrive at, you’re right:
Now that recreational marijuana is legal, Minnesota will need nearly 400 dispensaries to comply with state law, a new study reveals.
The law requires one dispensary for every 12,500 Minnesotans. That totals to a minimum of 381 cannabis dispensaries across the state.
Why that exact ratio – a ratio higher than the ratio of McDonalds restaurants to Minnesotans?
Well, y’see, there was a study:
Participants in the study included Minnesotans who have consumed marijuana within the past year. Of those participants, 83% reported cannabis consumption at least once a month. Forty percent reported consuming cannabis “daily or almost daily.”
Still doesn’t make sense?
Just remember – the whole thing is a wealth transfer from taxpayers to the political class that employs the bureaucrats that’ll administer this inevitable soon-to-be boondoggle.
Now it makes sense, right?
