DENVER — Following The Associated Press report that the DEA will move to reclassify marijuana from a Schedule I drug to a Schedule III drug, certain concerns have arisen in Colorado about what the change could mean.Austin Martinson is the owner of Karmaceuticals , which prides itself on being a small business.
However, Martinson is concerned the reclassification would open up the cannabis industry to large corporations. “Full legalization, with no regulations, is going to be bad for local businesses," said Martinson, who acknowledged it would be beneficial to have the ability to sell products across state lines.
“I don't see how any marijuana, if this goes through, won't be classified as medical now. And I don't think that was necessarily the intent," said Williams. “There is a misconception that physicians in Colorado already prescribe marijuana. What they can do is give a person an endorsement for a medical marijuana card, but that's not the same thing as a prescription.
