The plan was always to buy a little bit from the legal shop and then keep the receipt to cover for the cheaper stuff they get from their old dealers. Washington could have one legal shop. They’re only worried about the sales receipt.
When NY imposed huge taxes on tobacco, the black market came in. If cigarettes didn’t have the tax stamp on them people could get into trouble. I guess that wouldn’t work with MJ since it won’t be sold in packs.
Interesting approach.
The free market finds a way!
