Tax, tax, tax, blah, blah, blah.

I understand why this is a talking point, but I really despise that such a healthy and natural source of medicine is so eagerly being advanced as something to tax. I'll grow my own. Fuck the state. They throw users in jail for 50+ years and then expect us to turn around and start paying them homage for living how we want? Fuck them. Government officials are good for absolutely nothing but causing trouble. They're the real criminals. It's extortion, period.

Medical Marijuana is BULLSHIT! it should be legal for everyone to use not just sick people or those who pretend to be sick!

Az votes in Nov and I have been telling everyone. Some are still apposed and to damn conservative. I am in a Bkfast Networking Club for Business, We had three of our candidates for Congress talk to our group. So far all were against legalizing it however they are in favor for MMJ. However you can always tell they are trying to give you a safe answer while distancing themselves from the topic. All Politicians are 2 face F*ckers!!

Remember when it was exciting just to hear about medicinal marijuana being decriminalized in a state or municipality, and now I'm hearing states are beginning to change the legislation that stops people who just want to get high for personal enjoyment, and have every right to. The MPP should have an advertisement on television with an elderly janitor speaking to the camera and saying: Marijuana is the only way I can enjoy my job. Why do you want to take that away from me?

They need to legalize and tax it in PA some time this year. I'm tired of waiting.

@angryafghan

i definitely understand but like i said they provide free labor in most prisons. and they listed profits which means they are earning money not behind. plus even if its a strain on the government to pay these people. they pay taxes, they consume goods which they feel helps spread the money. plus like i said, the police force would shrink tremendously. look at the army. they dont need all these people but they still spend 750billion a year. if we pull out the army would shrink
