    They could lose millions and third party payment processors would potentially cut ties with them. It could literally tank their entire business. Don’t get me wrong. I wish weed was legal and I also wish there wasn’t financial pressure from banks and lending institutions to blackball the weed industry, but if there is any industry that is going to stick strictly to federal law, it’s the financial sector. I don’t think they have anything against weed, I think they have something against loosing millions of dollars.

      I think you really overestimate how hard the US government is willing to go against rich private corporations, no matter what they do.

      Norfolk Southern got complete control of the situation when they derailed a train with toxic chemicals in a small Ohio town. Their losses have not been catastrophic to the company, they’re still chugging along.

      And they poisoned an entire town of people! Feds slapped em on the wrist and moved on.
