    You think they’re gonna go arrest John Mastercard because someone bought recreational marijuana from a vendor in a legal state?

      I think a risk-averse corporation may decide that it’s not worth bothering with.

      At any rate, it’s their own pockets they’re hurting.

        no, payment processors blocking transactions for your business is definitely hurting more pockets than their own.
