New Mexico recreational marijuana law could hurt Colorado cannabis sales

New Mexico will launch its own legal recreational marijuana market in 2022, but the business done there could hurt Colorado’s cannabis industry. Denver7 spoke with a dispensary owner in the border city of Trinidad to explain how dependent his business is on out-of-state customers.

    Thank God. People will move there and the industry here won’t be so saturated.

    How selfish. Legalization is about more than your pot shop’s revenue.

    So let’s get this straight you don’t want anymore legal states so you can run a monopoly is what co is saying.. Should be legal nation wide.

    All marijuana businesses knew going in they are in a rapidly evolving situation. We will likely end the federal marijuana prohibition soon. After the dust settles, average quality, legal marijuana will sell for $25 to $40 an ounce. It’s just a plant. And it will be sold wherever more harmful beer and wine are available.

    Oh, boo hoo. It isn’t our fault they want a monopoly.



  21. shoot_the_moon on September 9, 2021 at 12:12 am

    are there more pot people in NM. than Colorado?



  22. RIXRADvidz on September 9, 2021 at 12:13 am

    NO IT Won’t if Kansas legalized THEN it would put a dent in Colorado Weed Biz. Iowa has weed now, perhaps it will take some of the pressure off pulling on NB and KS. we still have WY, UT, violating federal transport and distribution laws, but that’s another story. I can assure you, not a lot of people would drive to CO from NM for weed.
    they already had it there, only now it’s legal.
