Why did the U. S. Treasury Department issue a memorandum?
The U. S. Treasury Department issued a memorandum clarifying the government’s advice to the nation’s banks about how to deal with the booming cannabis industry. Treasury outlined a series of guidelines for " assessing the risk of providing services to a marijuana-related business". Most bankers and " potpreneurs" shrugged. The memo made clear that the manufacture and distribution of marijuana remains a federal crime, under the Controlled Substances Act, which means bankers who knowingly grant checking accounts or loan money to anyone in the cannabis industry risk federal prosecution for money laundering or conspiracy. Treasury’s letter wouldn’t change anything. Numerica Credit Union, Washington state’s fifth-largest, with $ 1. 3 billion in assets, is the first banking institution to publicly offer checking accounts to businesses that acquire licenses to sell recreational marijuana. Though risky, the potential rewards for becoming one of the first financial institutions to work with the marijuana industry are massive, say experts in the field. Twenty states across the U. S. and the District of Columbia now have medical marijuana laws on the books, and recreational pot is legal in Colorado and Washington. Despite the conflict with federal law, millions of dollars in cannabis transactions are taking place across America, with little to no fear that anyone will be prosecuted for them.
选项
A、The manufacture and distribution of marijuana is a federal crime.
B、Pot growers should not be loaned by the banks.
C、The cannabis industry will be ended.
D、Dispensers would still have no bank accounts.
答案
C
解析
从文中“which means bankers who knowingly grant checking accounts or loan money to anyone in the cannabis industry risk federal prosecution for money laundering or conspiracy.”可以了解到,上文说依据受管制物品法案,生产和销售大麻是犯罪,所以任何人不得给涉及大麻业的任何人提供资金,否则将会以洗钱罪等罪名被起诉。因此,选项C的说法过于笼统绝对,不符合原文大意。
