So much for the rhetoric of “tax the hell out of it”. The problem is that anybody can grow it in their back yards. It's a weed. So if you try taxing it beyond a nominal amount, people will just grow their own.

Exactly, those who try to sell it in large quantities will be the ones to get taxed. But then again, I guess there’s some weed equivalent of moonshining.
