I showed you earlier (if you read it) how in either case, 9% or 23% the contribution of the illegal economy was negligible - something like $4 rather than $23 on a $100 purchase.

You also claimed it was 87 cents on a $100 purchase.

pigdog's analysis is simply amazing. Somehow 23% embedded tax drops down to 4% when drug dealers buys legal goods.

Not the same thing, mommie. Go back and read it again. And the $0.87 was probably high anyway; seems likely it's less . That would have made i $4.60 or so and that's probably giving too much credit to the naysayers. The $4 figure seems about right, don't you think??? Figure it out mommie.
