What about the tax revenue from cigarettes? And from Alcohol?
Both of those substances have lead to far more deaths than pot ever has?
The ONLY reason for taxing these items is as a sin tax. A punitive tax on the weaker and stupid people in our society.
Much like the Lottery.
Alcohol is good for you in moderate amounts. Pot is not. If you drink too much, you should be punished. Especially if you do something stupid. That is why drunk driving is illegal.
