Pro-marijuana ad pushes pot as Calif. budget fix

A pro-marijuana group is launching another television bid to legalize pot in California - this time with the pitch that legalizing and taxing the drug could help solve the state's massive budget deficit.

wtf?

[HER MAIN MAN]

Just think of all the money it would bring into the State! Tax on every pack of joints!, Tickets for drive UIM, and income from those dumbasz's that still try to sell it illegally!
What a BANK ROLL!

The TAX LEECHES will stop at nothing to keep the RIPOFF of the taxpayer going. Now the drug addicts see an opening... "We will pay taxes for our dope". Oh, the revenue from marijuana isn't enough? Tax METH! The TAX LEECHES will jump on board and support it. As long as they can keep getting more paid days off, unbelievable healthcare insurance and retirement that NOBODY else could even dream of getting. Society be dammmmned! Screw your kids!

I guess we know where The Mouse stands on this issue: KABC-TV refused to air the ad.

What's the matter Disney? Afraid of pot?

Legalize hemp and we will see a lot more than a billion dollars in state revenue. An entire industry could be developed in California using hemp products for diesel fuel, paper, and fibers.

[Yup I said it]

I don't have to hide no more from the pigs!

Whoo Hoo!!!

Why is everyone afraid of pot? Can you imagine the tax revenue? Is not as bad a booze! I say legalize it and age restrict it.

That would only be sensible. It actually used to be a huge industry: hemp clothes, hemp paper (like that upon which the first U.S. paper money was printed), hemp sails, hemp rope, etc. It's way more durable than cotton, and more environmentally friendly, too. And think of the fuel potential!

The feds will shoot it down and they have the last say

My mother said years ago. As soon as they find a way to tax marijuana it will be legal. Well it looks like they are going to do it. HEY
