Since everyone would just grown their own, would these “taxes” be on the honor system or what, maaaaaann! Potheads crack me up.
What makes you think everybody would just grow their own? Those medical marijuana dispensaries sell expensive pot to people with medical marijuana cards who could just grow their own. Coffeeshops in the Netherlands sell pot to the Dutch who can grow up to five plants without fear of arrest. Sales taxes are collected in both instances yet these shops do gangbusters business. In California these shops are selling pot for in many cases for $20 or $30 a gram or more and people who could grow their own are paying that. Clearly “everyone” won't just grow their own.
