When their parents (who are already pushing 70) die, there will be a tsunami of homeless wandering around dazed and cursing their investment advisers from the forums.

I saw a report on CNBC where pot farmers are going out of business because the taxes on recreational pot is so high people aren’t buying it. They just get a prescription or buy illegally.

Simply wrong - Colorado continues to take in substantial amounts of sales tax from legal pot.

Many in Colorado grow their own. It is a weed and does not take the skill growing tomatoes does. Tax free.

No doubt - but it's utterly false that "people aren’t buying it".

wow, 4 people arrested. 23 billion and only how many complaints? The rich getting richer. Anyone got a picture of the community organizer who wants to spread the wealth?
