Ua hōʻike ʻo Whitney Economics i ka ulu ʻana o ka ʻoihana cannabis US no 11 mau makahiki, me ka lohi o ka ulu ʻana.

Wahi a kahi hōʻike hou a Whitney Economics, i hoʻokumu ʻia ma Oregon, ua ʻike ʻia ka ulu ʻana o ka ʻoihana cannabis legal US no ka 11th mau makahiki, akā ua lohi ka wikiwiki o ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka makahiki 2024. Ua ʻike ka ʻoihana noiʻi waiwai i kāna nūhou Fepeluali e manaʻo ʻia ka loaʻa kālā hope loa no ka makahiki ma waena o $ 30.2 biliona a me $ 30.7 biliona, e hōʻailona ana i ka piʻi haʻahaʻa o 6% makahiki. E like me ka hōʻike ʻana e *Green Market Report*, ʻoiai ke kūpaʻa nei ka ulu ʻana, ua lohi ka piʻi ʻana o ka ʻoihana cannabis legal US i hoʻohālikelike ʻia i nā pae pre-pandemic a ke emi nei mai ka piko o ka maʻi maʻi. Ua hōʻike pū ka hōʻike i kahi ʻano e pili ana: ke piʻi nei ka nui o nā ʻoihana cannabis e pani ana. I ka hopena o kēia makahiki, kokoke 1,000 mau laikini ʻoihana i nalowale, me 27.3% wale nō o nā mea hoʻohana cannabis i ka ʻāina e hōʻike ana i ka loaʻa kālā. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Beau Whitney, ka mea nāna i hoʻokumu iā Whitney Economics, "Inā ʻaʻole i ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka hoʻololi ʻana i nā kulekele i nā pae federal a me ka mokuʻāina no nā ʻoihana cannabis, e hoʻomau ka wikiwiki o ka pani ʻana o nā ʻoihana."

Ua hōʻike ka hōʻike ua ʻoi aku ke kūʻai aku o Michigan ma mua o nā mea i manaʻo ʻia, a hiki i kahi kokoke i $ 3.3 biliona, ma kahi o $ 400 miliona ke kiʻekiʻe ma mua o ka mea i manaʻo ʻia, ma muli o ke kūʻai ʻana i waho o ka mokuʻāina mai nā wahi e pili ana. Ua hana maikaʻi ʻo New York ma hope o nā hoʻoponopono hoʻoponopono i ʻae ʻia i ka wehe ʻana ma kahi o 230 mau hale kūʻai hale kūʻai, me ke kūʻai aku i $ 859 miliona, kahi piʻi nui mai $ 264 miliona ma 2023. ʻO ka mea like ʻole, hāʻule ʻo Florida i nā mea i manaʻo ʻia ma muli o ka lohi nui o nā kākau inoa maʻi maʻi hou. Wahi a ka hui, ʻoiai ke hoʻomau nei nā mea hana ma waena o ka mokuʻāina i ka hoʻonui ʻana i nā hana kūʻai kūʻai, e lohi ka ulu ʻana o ka mokuʻāina i 2025. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Whitney, "ʻO ka hoʻohana ʻana i nā hale kūʻai hou aku e hōʻemi wale i nā kūʻai maʻamau i kēlā me kēia hale kūʻai."

I kēia manawa, ua puka mai nā hōʻailona o ka stagnation i nā mākeke makua. Ua hōʻike ʻia ka hōʻike ua loaʻa ʻo Arizona i ka ulu maikaʻi ʻole, ʻoiai ke koi ʻia ma Colorado, Oregon, a me Wakinekona ua hoʻohaʻahaʻa a hōʻole iki paha i ka hoʻokokoke ʻana o kēia mau mākeke. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Whitney i kahi ʻāpana o ka lohi o ka ulu ʻana o ka ʻoihana cannabis legal US i ka hana ʻole o ka federal i ka hoʻoponopono cannabis, me ka hoʻopaʻa ʻana i ka hoʻolohe ʻana i ka cannabis reclassification a me ka stagnation legislative ma Congress e pili ana i ka waihona kālā, hoʻoponopono ʻauhau, a me ke kālepa interstate. Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Whitney, "ʻO ke kiʻekiʻe o ka hilinaʻi i ka ʻoihana cannabis e ka US Congress ua loaʻa i kahi haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa."

Ua hōʻike ka hōʻike i ka hana ʻole ʻana o ke aupuni i ka piʻi ʻana o 70% i ka nui o nā mokuʻāina e ʻike nei i ka emi ʻana o ka makahiki i ka loaʻa kālā. Ua emi iho ka huina o na loaa kuai ma na mokuaina makeke eono ma ka $457.9 miliona, a ua emi iho ka loaa ma na wahi kuai eha e $161.2 miliona. Ua ʻōlelo ka ʻoihana me ka ʻole o ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i nā kulekele cannabis, ʻoiai ka ulu ʻana o ke kūʻai aku, hiki i ka ʻoihana ke alo i ka hoʻomau ʻana i ka hoʻohui ʻana i nā ʻoihana nui, ka emi ʻana o ka loaʻa kālā, a me nā nalowale o ka hana. ʻO nā wahine a me nā ʻoihana liʻiliʻi, ʻoi aku ka nui o ke kaumaha. Ma muli o ka nui o nā hōʻaiʻē e pili ana i ka hōʻaiʻē a koi i nā hōʻoia pilikino, e piʻi hou ka "waiwai" no kēia mau mea hana.
