It's interesting that the rapid state legalization efforts haven't lowered the actual price of pot. The whole point of it being worth trading illicitly is that the danger of being arrested and losing your freedom and your money made pot worth a premium to the buyer.
You'd think the non legal barriers to entry for going in the business of growing plants would be very few. More supply should drive down prices, as growers compete for market share.
I get that the taxes and regulations add a great deal of cost to state legal (but still federally illegal) pot, but still, when there's a bigger supply than demand of any other product, the price goes down. I was filling up with regular unleaded for $ 1.50 a gallon under Trump, for example.
