Over the last decade, eighteen US states have implemented their own sets of regulations to form a recreational cannabis industry. Now there's a patchwork of legalization, many farms have failed, product prices are high, and much of legal weed has fallen short of initial expectations. So what is the current economic state of the legal and illegal cannabis markets in the US? Where has state cannabis regulation gone wrong? How could it do better? And why is legal pot so dang expensive?!In this episode, host Brit Smith talks to leading UC Davis agricultural economist Dr. Robin Goldstein and UC Davis Professor of Agriculture and Resource Economics Daniel Sumner about their new book “Can Legal Weed Win? The Blunt Realities of Cannabis Economics” (University of California Press). Dan and Robin give Brit their expert insights into cannabis as an agricultural product, how new legal markets can thrive, whether they think federal legalization might help or hurt the legal weed industry, and where the US can expect its legal and illegal cannabis markets to go from here.Follow us on social media @DifferentLeaf or @Different_Leaf, and get the summer issue of Different Leaf the magazine all about Travel and Cannabis at DifferentLeaf.com or at select Whole Foods, Barnes and Noble Bookstores, and Walmart stores.

Como diz o Hugo van der Ding na abertura, este é um episódio que lhe vai dar nojo. Muito nojo. Porquê? Porque vai ouvir falar de tudo aquilo que conhecemos, mas que muitas vezes não olhamos de frente, quase fingimos que não existe:- O mercado das drogas;- O mercado ilícito de órgãos;- O tráfico humano;- As barrigas de aluguer.Temas terríveis, asquerosos, mas dos quais, todos os dias, se faz uma economia paralela. Daí chamarem-se Transacções Repugnantes.A Joana e o Hugo vão pôr os dedos nas feridas todas e contar, de viva-voz, como se criam e porque se mantêm estas formas de gerar dinheiro que apenas são aproveitamentos terríveis da miséria de outrem.

Two economists take readers on a tour of the economics of legal and illegal weed, showing where cannabis regulation has gone wrong and how it could do better. Cannabis "legalization" hasn't lived up to the hype. Across North America, investors are reeling, tax collections are below projections, and people are pointing fingers. On the business side, companies have shut down, farms have failed, workers have lost their jobs, and consumers face high prices. Why has legal weed failed to deliver on many of its promises? Can Legal Weed Win? takes on the euphoric claims with straight dope and a full dose of economic reality. This book delivers the unadulterated facts about the new legal segment of one of the world's oldest industries. In witty, accessible prose, economists Robin Goldstein and Daniel Sumner take readers on a whirlwind tour of the economic past, present, and future of legal and illegal weed. Drawing upon reams of data and their own experience working with California cannabis regulators since 2016, Goldstein and Sumner explain why many cannabis businesses and some aspects of legalization fail to measure up, while others occasionally get it right. Their stories stretch from before America's first medical weed dispensaries opened in 1996 through the short-term boom in legal consumption that happened during COVID-19 lockdowns. Can Legal Weed Win? is packed with unexpected insights about how cannabis markets can thrive, how regulators get the laws right or wrong, and what might happen to legal and illegal markets going forward.
