4. Consumption Comparison to Alcohol
“As has been well
documented, I smoked pot
as a kid, and I view it as a
bad habit and a vice, not
very different from the
cigarettes that I smoked as
a young person up through
a big chunk of my adult
life. I don’t think it is more
dangerous than alcohol”

5. Consumption Comparison to Alcohol
Alcohol Prohibition will help our prediction on the legalisation effect on
recreational consumption of cannabis
Marijuana prohibition has been just as ineffective, inefficient, and
problematic as alcohol prohibition (Effective Arguments …, 2014)
Legalization is providing a less harmful alternative to alcohol
8. Social Behavior Comparison
Grandmas Smoking Marijuana for the
First Time
Jon Stewart highlights the irony of some
statements in the media
Today we are experiencing a shift of social norms.
Consuming cannabis is on the way to be socially acceptable

responsible for most of marijuana's psychological
effects.
• THC stimulates cells in the brain to release
dopamine, creating euphoria
• Users typically smoke to obtain a "high"

11. Social Behavior Comparison
Alcohol and Marijuana are both
consumed in a social environment
social ‘tools’ bringing people together

have benefits and consequences due to consumption

marijuana might be a preferred
substance the long-run

alcohol industry to recreational
marijuana industry
12. Social Surplus
“The current feeling is a bit like the
dotcom or the green-tech booms […] only
it also brings freedom and saves money
in criminalization. This industry is going
to make the world a safer place. It'll also
create a lot of work in post-recession
America”
-Troy Dayton, co-founder and chief executive of
cannabis investment company the ArcView Group
Transparent transactions from taxes on
marijuana increase the image of the
industry and will most likely yield in a
higher demand.

22. Prediction Future Market
How many people will be
consuming marijuana, and
how much? What states
stand to benefit most from
growing it? Will big business
take over its production and
sale, or will it remain in the
hands of independent
growers and dealers? And
how large, in dollar terms,
might this whole sector end
up?
U.S. retail cannabis sales are estimated to rise
more than five-fold over the next five
From an estimated $2.2-$2.6 billion in 2014
to $7.4-8.2 billion in 2018
Balancing Convergence

fruit' aspect"

larger
quantities
because it is
now legal
23. Federal Legalization
Would allow to
Do business in more than one
state
Transport product across
state lines
Open a bank account
banks obey regulations laid
down at the federal level
24. Federal Legalization
“It is important that tobacco
control advocates and the public
understand the clandestine
research and analyses that the
tobacco industry has conducted
regarding potential marijuana
legalization as well as the
tobacco industry’s role in
turning cigarettes into the
world’s most widely used
delivery system for the addictive
drug nicotine, the leading
preventable cause of death, to
prevent the industry from
repeating this history with
marijuana if given the
opportunity”

The entrance of existing big corporations in the
market would have an important impact on
existing shops and would also change the majority
of the competitive landscape characteristics.
Federal ban acted as an

protection allowing
businesses to learn by
doing.
Federal legalization
would force businesses
to face an international
competition.
25. New York’s Eventual Legalization
New tourism opportunity
Job creation
Increase real estate market
Increase State’s GDP
New York can learn from Colorado and
Washington mistakes and reduce short-
term time adaptation
New York would rapidly become
the most important state in the
recreational marijuana business.
