There it is. The taxes on pot will make it so expensive that the "imports" will cost less than the local junk. Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah! Hah!

Follow the money. It will just turn out to be another revenue stream for them to waste. They always want more. When prohibition didn’t work, they allowed it then taxed it heavily. When outlawing gambling didn’t work they taxed it and went one step further when they created the biggest gamble of all, the Lottery. Now they see another opportunity. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oyu5sFzWL...

  For years, all I've heard from advocates of legalizing pot is "make it legal and tax it". Was I the only person thinking the governments, state, federal, and local, will establish such draconian taxes that the "imported" junk will be cheaper? It hasn't happened yet, but history tells me it will. Time will tell. I love it when I'm right.
