What I would think will happen is that some people will move to those state allowing legal marijuana...either because of their recreational use or for medical conditions. Of course, they'll still need jobs, unless retired or having very flexible employment.
People aren't going to just start smoking after they move there, they are moving there because they already smoke. Most of those of us ADULTS who smoke are responsible citizens, professionals, business owners regardless whether live in states with legal pot or not.
so now i can drive with pot in my trunk of my car?
As long as you're not transporting across state lines and it doesn't exceed the amount individuals are allowed to possess, which I would suppose varies from state to state. You still have to follow whatever the state regs are, just as you do with alcohol.

In NJ the cigarette tax is very high, and in Delaware it's low, so many people try to drive to DE and bring back cartons of cigarettes, but even for that, the police on the Jersey side sit on the bridge and pull people over looking for cigarettes. I don't know what the criteria is that makes one suspicious, but I'd not try to bring it over to a state where it's not legal yet, unless it was a very small amount (if I went to a legal state I would be very tempted to try to get some edibles back with me, lol)

Don't you have to have a legal ID for that state to buy/possess anything?
The "bread" of "Bread and Circuses" can be anything - as long as it serves the purposes of those in control.
Bread and Circuses was a ploy to distract people from the problems stemming from the government. Yet the states that have normalized marijuana are among the more successful states in the country.
If it were really a case of Bread and Circuses, Trump would be handing out free samples personally.

I'm sure. Again, the regulations are similar to alcohol except there are limits to how much you can possess with pot. The age to buy is at least 21 just like alcohol. No one is going to take a chance paying a huge fine, losing their pot mercantile license worth a fortune that many people want to have just so they can make a sale to someone without i.d. , just as the vast majority of bar and liquor store owners would rarely take that chance.

You mean cigarettes? No you can buy cigarettes in any state (people vacation in other states after all) it's just transporting across state lines in amounts they consider over the limit (not sure what that is). It is all to avoid losing tax revenue. My nephew used to buy those Indian cigarettes online, tax-free, for himself and a few family members, and then one day he got a bill in the mail from the NJ State Treasury Department for over $700 in taxes. The state had gotten warrants to see the customer records from the online cigarette seller so they could go after people for the taxes. So then he started making monthly trips to Delaware, lol.

Sorry should have been more specific. I meant pot. In Washington State you do have to be a legal resident and they limit the amount you can buy. That's what I was told.
