For example, the new pot tax measure would set aside $300,000 for the Colorado State Fair. It would also set up a new $2 million “school bullying prevention” fund. Other new items include $1 million for poison control centers.

Will any cookies be left after the Colorado government is done with their case of the munchies and gets their hands out of the cookie jar?

Typical politician behavior when presented with a pile of cash.

A good solution is to never give them money, and they HATE that.

Like the Colorado congresscritters and their drunkard governor are going to let them keep that money.

Never underestermate the sleaze of a politician.

After CW-II, it’ll be the guillotine for ‘em.

...the money will have to be refunded unless voters again approve the 10 percent sales and 15 percent excise taxes.

So, pot is taxed at 25%? Which doesn't include fees and pre-existing taxes on medical mj. Thieves!

“I hope the voters understand that money is primarily going to be used for programs related to marijuana prevention, treatment, education, and that we literally have already spent some of it,” Rankin said.

...Well you peons better approve letting us keep it, cause it's already gone!
