It’s legal. The idea was that the legalization would change things. It hasn’t. Such a big surprise.

Well, if you repeal prohibition but then slap a 50% tax on the product, then bootleggers are obviously still going to have a niche.

It’s the same reason we still have cigarette smugglers in this country even though cigarettes have been legal forever.

“The idea was that the legalization would change things.”

I thought the primary idea was to obtain more tax dollars.
