Or they could gain even more money, depending on how the system works. For example, I met a dispensary owner in Washington state. He was involved in illegal growing and distribution prior to the legalization. He had all the infrastructure, knowledge, and connections required to hit he market running. He went from making 10s of thousands of dollars to millions overnight. Hardly the punishment for criminals some are suggesting legalization will result in.
