When I voted for legalization, it was based on the promise that the licenses and businesses would all be local. That promise was pure bullshit, in retrospect.

It is local, everything is grown, cultivated, harvested, tested, inside of Massachusetts. Same with post processing for concentrates, and edibles, all done within the state boarders. It legally has to be.

The issue is these operations, while "local" are actually run/financed by out of state hedge firms and or have major funding sources that are located outside of Massachusetts, as there is no law that tells you where you can get funding from.
