Willie Nelson has seen one prohibition end. Now another looms
Willie Nelson was born in 1933, the year US alcohol prohibition ended. The country singer is now 93, and prohibitions are still on tour: in a statement to Inc. published on 30 October, he opposed impending restrictions on THC products derived from hemp. He also has a business stake in the dispute: his brand reports monthly sales of $20 million. His partner Forrest Dein hopes the law will change, but is keeping cash reserves in case sales have to stop.
