Let them have their Pot Nirvana in Ca. When they figure out how much the govt. taxes them for it perhaps they will get a lesson in conservatism. People have a right to waste their lives away if that’s what they choose. Free Republic!

Even with a punishing tax rate, a sack of legal weed would still cost far less than the current black market prices. I suspect those inclined would happily pay a big tax to fire up their bongs legally.

And growing pot is a pain, especially for a recreational user. Why have home brew kits not driven Budweiser out of business, and why do bags of tobacco not outsell cigarettes? Again, people will gladly pay the tax for (1) convenience and (2) peace of mind in being legal.
