Heck, if the disadvantaged neighbourhoods get hooked on cannabis, that could be a good thing if it leads to less alcohol use. Getting stoned all the time isn't good, but it's better than getting drunk all the time. Stoned people are way less dangerous to themselves, to others, and to property than drunk people are.

Booze is sold as a liquid so it is inefficient to ship through the mail, does not have a plain packaging requirement so customers can get information from the physical product. Many kinds of booze are also temperature sensitive. There is literally nothing to see in a physical pot store, particularly since they are not allowed to sell paraphernalia or allow customers to sample the wares.
