Marijuana sales in Oregon along the Idaho border are 420% higher than the statewide average, according to the state's Office of Economic Analysis

Marijuana sales in Oregon along the state's border with Idaho are booming, according to the Oregon Office of Economic Analysis . That's to be expected, given that recreational marijuana isn't legal in Idaho, but the numbers are still surprising -- in more ways than one."In things you cannot make up, Oregon sales per adult along the Idaho border are 420% the statewide average," Josh Lehner, an economist with the OEA, wrote in a post on Friday.

About 75% of marijuana sales in Oregon and 35% of sales in Washington in counties along the borders with Idaho appear to be due to the border effect, Lehner said, citing data from the Oregon Liquor Control Commission and the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board.

You'll notice that CNN is not reporting much on the Impeachment trial at the moment since the defense had their day in court and revealed the impeachment for what it actually is, a corrupt, partisan sham...

How much high do an average American gets.

The irony of people criticizing legalization because weed is spilling over into states where it is illegal while simultaneously ignoring the same fact about guns.

Fascinating statistic. Perhaps in a bizarre coincidence, we found that merely offering a free sample of CBD oil boosted enrollment in our sociocultural classes by 420% Classes are now boosting record enrollments of 9.

nice

I can't imagine why these would be...

Daammn.. That's a shit ton of black and mexican people that live in Oregon/Idaho... 🙄🤦

Joe Biden says marijuana is a bad gateway drug.

All those Mormons coming over from Idaho.

It must smell great there

Democrats need drug addicts. Whether they are not too stoned to show up and vote is another question.

Nice

Losers

Exports are booming?

Excuse my skepticism but 420%? This has got to be a hoax (or manipulated data).

I'm not surprised that weed sales are increased near the border of a state that does sell it recreationally, but 420%? I call bullcrap on the number

I’m really proud of the teamwork done by the entire state to make sure it was that exact number

🤣🤣🤣

Funny how white americans get to prosper while those of color continue to be oppressed with cannabis! America sure is great for some

Huh....I wonder why. Huh....

What a surprise ....NOT

Probably 420 more problems in Idaho now also

Duh. Smuggling has its rewards

420% exactly?

Who cares

TheOnion

420%? Very clever.

Really? I also wonder why they are so much higher near the border of Idaho Where could the extra customers be coming from?

Is it actually 420% higher or is that a joke? If it's Tru that's insane lol

KaytoMuto

I feel like you made this up for a article 🤷‍♂️

Really? 420? Lol.

I would have said the state office of economy are high on marijuana but I don't jump into conclusion...

Yeah ok 420% good one

Really? '420' percent

But yet, Your Put PEOPLE OF COLOR IN PRISON FOR YEARS FOR SELLING A PLANT. THEN YOUR TURN AROUND AND DO THE SAME AND ITS OK. THE LAWS OF THE LAND SHOULD BE FOR EVERYBODY

Lol...I see what you did there

Nice

Nice.

No way it’s 420 percent higher.

420% higher? How convenient a number for pot sales statistic. Sure this isn't an TheOnion article?

That number must be the new golden ratio.

That's Snoop Dogg's favorite number!!

lol. 420.

'420% higher' , ISWYDT !!!

Is this supposed to be a pun?

Proving that states like Idaho should pull their heads out of their rear ends already, or continue losing Idahoan's money due to their stubbornness for change. Alabama f'ing sucks too. Still no Alabama lottery. I still drive to Florida every week to buy a few tickets.

420 percent lolololol

69% in favor.

Stupid Idaho... look at all that tax money they could be gaining. MakeMarijuanaLegalEverywhere

Living in Idaho must be stressful.

Thank you for you financial support, Idaho!

New analysis finds Americans' engagement with suspect news sources on the riseWhile Americans increasingly interacted with unreliable sources, residents of Germany and France actually decreased their engagement with these sites. Clearly, people click whatever they agree with. I don't bother clicking or sharing unless it's from a reputable source, and usually not an opinion piece. Unfortunately, that's not how many operate.
