This would be a smart way to increase revenue. I am 100% certain that they WILL be taxing it heavily - just like cigarettes and alcohol. When other states see how much money is being made..I am hoping they all jump on the wagon then our retard of a PM here in Canada might do the same and voila..financial crisis averted
I find it comical that Holland has actually moved to shut down their tourist industry revenue from visiting potheads and the USA is finally figuring it out. It's cheaper to go to the US anyway!0 -
I live in CO (seriously thinking of changing my screen name - iluvco - because of this. I would GLADLY pay higher taxes rather than have this law. Why not greatly increase the taxes on cigarettes, liquour, and junk food? I'm thoroughly disgusted! They better darn well use that income on the schools.0

IluvCO - The campaign that pushed the Amendment through really has a point. People are out there smoking it anyways, people of all ages. It's happening. It's not going to stop happening.
Police are chasing their tails to go after nonviolent crimes, and have less manpower where they need it as a result. I'm sure this is a familiar story in many other states, too.
On top of that, I know that my high school drop out friends that are living 3 people to a 2 bedroom apartment for $600 a month, all of them working full time minimum wage ($700 each*3 people), whom don't pay for internet, don't own a television, don't own cars, are spending possibly up to 50% of that on POT each month!
That $100-$350 (per person) should be getting taxed. End of story.

What's wrong with baking your bake in a brownie?
Glad some states have gotten saner, but even if I lived there, I'd avoid weed, I remember the munchies, and they were no joke. Alcohol can do that to a person, too, though!0 -
Unfortunately the taxation portion of the bill wasn't written properly. Whether this serves to invalidate the bill or just cause problems with taxing the sale remains to be seen.0

Wonder if there will be an increase in obesity in CO? Man those munchies don't mess around.0

What do you think will happen? Honestly? Why do you think it is so bad?
Have you ever been places that have legalization? Or are you just guessing as to what it means?
I find a lot of people don't have an understanding.0 -
About time. Honestly, it's about time we had better headlines. There is nothing like a good old marijuana legalization effort to improve the overall quality of headlines and quotables in general around the country.
And I don't really see why people are all that concerned. Legalization won't lead to more marijuana use, it will lead to more awareness of marijuana use. People smoke it. Your momma did, probably your son does, and your neighbor has three plants in a basement closet. You didn't know? Now you do. Take some of the money we could save from the unconscionable price tag associated with the DEA and add it to new marijuana tax revenue, and go buy yourself a 15 pack of Stroh's--which, by the way, is America's fire-brewed beer. And while you're out, bring me back a family-sized bag of Flamin' Buffalo-style Doritos.0 -

The numbers won't increase, but you will be spending less money to incarcerate the ones that already exist.0 -

Why pay to put them there? And, have you ever been left with the bill for feeding a bunch of stoners?Could assist in simple cardio workouts such as jogging. But they'd want to use a vaporizer or risk their lungs.

I haven't had pot in decades, but I approve of the legalization initiatives. My uncle died of mesothelioma, and used pot to ease the pain. I understand it can also be helpful for glaucoma. As a recreational mind number, it is no worse than alcohol. They both impair the ability to drive, and no one should drive while under the influence. I never liked smoking anything whatsoever, but I really liked using MJ as a cooking herb. Nothing beats it for providing that after dinner mellow feeling. The initiative failed in our state but passed in Washington. Maybe it will pass next time. Both states will face legal challenges from the feds.0
