“I do say it would be a nice thing if we could raise enuff Hemp to pay our rates,” John Adams said in 1763 – before becoming a founding father of the United States. A few years on, there were queues this week to buy even small amounts of the stuff in Colorado. On January 1 the state became the first in the US to host legal marketplaces in recreational marijuana. Although federal law still forbids pot sales, Washington state will follow in 2014. Investors may also see this trend as a nice thing.
1763年,尚未成為美國“國父”的約翰?亞當(dāng)斯(John Adams)說道:“我真的認(rèn)為,如果我們能夠種植足夠的大麻來支付我們的薪資,那真是再好不過了。”很多年過去了,本周美國科羅拉多州購買小劑量大麻的顧客排起了長隊(duì)。今年1月1日,科羅拉多州成為美國首個為消遣用大麻提供合法市場的州。盡管聯(lián)邦法律仍禁止大麻銷售,但華盛頓州將在2014年效仿科羅拉多州的做法。投資者也可能將這種趨勢視為一件好事。
