MPP spokesperson Bruce Mirken is questioned by the hosts of CNBC Power Lunch about the compelling rationale behind regulating and taxing marijuana like alcohol in California. Experts agree that such a plan could generate over a billion dollars in revenue for the state, as well as bolster the economy and relieve the fear of arrest from the otherwise law-abiding population of marijuana consumers. 07/16/2009

  • This is a joke, why we are even still talking about it is retarded. Legalize it already, I'm 30 years old. The next argument I hear against it that makes any sense what so ever will be the first one.

  • Yea you can go to a store and buy rat poison, a gun or a bottle of advil and abuse them to kill yourself or others that very day, but cannabis will never kill anyone.

  • Wow I can't believe they actually brought up libertarianism and Milton Friedman, MSNBC is actually decent.

  • They really didn't take him seriously at all...

  • Black Sabbath kicks ass.

  • unless ur getting the best product available u are paying about twice as much as anyone i know charges

  • people already do what u do with alcohol, supplying family and friends with their yield, but the market would be big enough that it wont really matter because there aren't enough people like u.

  • whats insane is going to jail for years at a time for smoking it.

    i would love to pay a 50$ tax on it. just so i would not have to worry about going to jail for smoking it.

    and i'm sure there is alot of other pple who feel the same way.

    50 bucks is not alot of money if you add up the total amount of money one pays in legal fee's when you get busted for it

  • And soon the world will love you sweetleaf.
