Guaranteeing that black market pot will be big business in Michigan.

If you think there’s a War on Drugs now, just wait until the government starts getting a cut of the action.

If they keep raising the tax on it that will just encourage more illegal sales and more people will just grow their own.

I just checked, and adults can grow up to 12 plants at a residence. Prepare for weed to be as common as zucchini in summer, with no taxes going to the State.

They wanted it taxed and regulated.

Well.....

Be careful what you ask for.

“This week, a judge ruled Michigan’s new 24% wholesale marijuana excise tax can go into effect on Jan. 1”

no need for Michigan’s pot smokers to worry: still plenty of tax-free pot on the street ...

Dispensaries are closing left and right in my area. My small town used to have four in the immediate vicinity. Half were pretty decent new build structures. Both the nice ones just closed their doors.

The real winners are the billboard companies. I’ll bet 70% of billboards working 39 miles of the state border are for pot stores.

It’s comically pathetic.

If the government needs the money I say fine, but a 24% tax hike is too little. I’d prefer they raise taxes about 500%, then they can really rake in the tax revenues right?

Marijuana is illegal under U.S. federal law.

When will the Federal Government begin enforcing that?
