When illinois legalized marijuana I was like this is awesome because all the states are around us will not take the stick up their but about that no matter how much money flows into our state. I mean wisconsin is the liberal neighbor.
Fortunately Wisconsin has had the UP for weed for quite a while, and the market up there is so heavily saturated that it’s cheap as hell even with the road trip factored in. Half of Wisconsin has billboards saying shit like “legal weed is how close??” And then the distance to the dispensary being advertised. Southern Wisconsin is doing better now that states around those borders are legal, though, so yay!
It’s so absurd that it’s not legal here, when it’s illegal on paper only due to widespread availability close to the borders. We very quickly lost our chance to be major players in the industry regionally. Like there’s no massive tax money to be had from legalizing here now because they would still be competing with states that have a mature market and thus significantly lower prices. So dumb and shortsighted.
I sorta hope more borders states do it just because illinois did the illinois thing and its to corp friendly and individual antagonistic. If the border states do it we will have to lower the taxes and fees and maybe they will allow some personal grow.
Indiana too. Technically northern but sometimes we’re not sure.
Indiana is the Alabama of the Midwest.

Say what you will Ohio sid legalize marijuana and abortion, though both took ballot initiatives that were fiercely opposed by the state government
