Why Elon Musk’s Marijuana Legalization Tweet Matters This Time Around

The tweet may not help with legalization, but it may help with decriminalizing cannabis and releasing non-violent offenders who are serving harsh sentences for selling and growing a plant which is now legal in many parts of North America.  The fact that public companies with market caps in the billions are selling the same plant that many minority offenders are sitting in jail doing time for needs to change, and Musk may be just the man to make that happen.
