Crony Capitalists who buy politicians want legalized pot and politicians looking for new revenue sources.
In NY pot legalization comes with a nine percent tax for the state and four percent for local govrnments.
Like Australia’s gun ban which sees guns less expensive and as readily available as ever-
Oklahoma’s medical program is anyone can get a card.
It is nominally a medical program, it is in reality nothing more than a state registry.
This is an overwhelming landslide for the no show, unaccountable do nothing bureaucracy to stay in place-
despite any adult in the state being able to get a card for a nominal fee.
*Not sure abt OK but the indians in NY state are selling weed. They opened two dozen dispensaries along the border with PA. (and 0% goes to any state)
It was to be 15% in Oklahoma. Likely not hardly enough to cover the extra expense in insurance, indigent care etc.
