Taxing pot isn’t going to save California.
DUDE, your freaking me out!
“Taxing pot isn’t going to save California.”
Bingo! The state and unions think dope will bail out CA. This is almost like “It’s A Wonderful Life where the libs tunr CA into Potterville. I mean they have porn, drugs, soon more gambling, - other criminal activities including govt union workers.
Depending on whether or not retail sale is legalized by the locality, drug tourism and the huge dollars from that would be what saves California.
Many Californians would simply grow it, and that wouldn’t be taxed. Now, that means more Californians have more money in their pocket, and when they go spend that money in stores, California would benefit from those sales taxes.
But drug tourism benefits California not only on whatever taxes are on marijuana, but all the other taxes the tourists pay.
