Marijuana Inc: Inside America’s Pot Industry

Friday, January 16th, 2009 at 3:10 pm | By: Radical Russ

While it may not be traded on Wall Street any time soon, marijuana has become a booming cash crop. CNBC’s Trish Regan goes behind the scenes to explore the inner workings of this secretive industry, focusing on Northern California’s “Emerald Triangle,” now the marijuana capital of the U.S. In this scenic pocket of America, the pot business, much of it legal under state law, now makes up as much as two-thirds of the local economy.

via Marijuana Inc: Inside America’s Pot Industry, Business, Domestic Production, Government, Drug, Medicine, Economy, Profit – CNBC.com.

Thus begins the intro for the CNBC official page on their “Marijuana Inc” documentary premiering this Tuesday Thursday (unless a plane crashes in a river, of course).  Let’s freep their online poll, “Do you favor the decriminalization of marijuana use?”, though at this writing, we’re already ahead 97.5% – 2.5%!
