Do you see people pushing cigarettes out there? Sure to a small extent but the government is making big bucks in tax revenue.
Legalizing would eliminate the middle man (dealer) and because it is legal would lower prices as a result. If an oz. cost $300 on the street a company could grow a whole damn warehouse full and sell it for $80 an oz. with $20 to the taxman and still be WAY ahead of the game.
I would give my support to a mom and pop kind of place. Most people do not have the time or know-how to grow themselves. It would make a lot of money for our nation. --- help me Instant Runoff Voting, you're my only hope --- "There is no such thing as laziness. Laziness is only lack of incentive." Norman Reider, MD
