Maybe from an employment perspective, but I'd expect Amazon's sales, distribution, and delivery systems to make boatloads of money selling cannabis online. Maybe not immediately, but 5 years after legalization, Prime Weed (tm) will be a huge moneymaker.

Ordering a joint from the nearest Amazon Marijuana dispensary and a drone delivers it and lights it for you before it leaves.

I guess it depends on the state. I'm betting that the likelihood of Amazon being allowed to sell marijuana in my state(illinois) within the next decade is right around 0%.

I'm willing to bet against that quite handily.

Amazon didn't go to highschool with Madigan, so it's hard for me to see it happening.
