Can Cannabis Save the US Economy from the COVID Pandemic Losses?

In other words, many people are quitting their jobs and migrating to legal cannabis. A Business Insider Article highlighted one such a transition by Jason Zvokel who left his job as a Pharmacist in Walgreens to work in a dispensary. Essentially Zvokel took a 5% pay cut compared to his previous job, however – the workload is far less stressful and according to him, “He’s excited to go to work!” The cannabis industry, that currently employs roughly 321,000 Americans will continue to see growth as things get legalized on a federal scale. However, will this be enough to avoid a major recession similar to the Great Depression?
