Marijuana legalization and household spending on food and alcohol
利用2005-2019年消费者支出调查数据，研究发现娱乐性大麻合法化使家庭季度食品支出增加（主要来自外出就餐），同时酒精支出也上升，表明大麻与食品、酒精存在互补关系。
Utilizing the Consumer Expenditure Interview Survey from 2005 to 2019, I study spending on food and alcohol following recreational marijuana law (RML). Exploiting differences in the timing of the passage of RMLs and employing two-way fixed-effects methods, I find that households located in states adopting these laws increase their quarterly spending on food, which is driven mainly by spending on food consumed away from home. Legalization of recreational marijuana also leads to increased quarterly spending on alcohol. These findings suggest a complementarity between food, alcohol, and marijuana.
