there is still a fuck ton of money being made
"ton"
this is the link telling me what is the tax rate
not what is actually being made
"Marijuana tax collections in Colorado and Washington have exceeded initial estimates."
Ill find more
one sec
afaik no weed is actually being sold here legally in my area
people are just selling bongs and pipes
then lowkey adding in the weed tax-free
well it doesnt matter if the state is making 10$ or a billion
theyre making money off something that was illegal
it does if the public is getting second-hand exposed
that they made nothing on
and they save money not having big busts
```
that they made nothing on
```
and criminal processing
yeah
you mean they don't make money off confiscating money?
WOW
If its illegal
?????????
apparently you're not old enough to hear of privately-funded prisons
Im very aware
theyre retarded
yes so making weed illegal
does make government money $$$
Not comparatively to the money spent processing. People arent jailed if at all for weed
unless its a crazy amount
Theyre usually fined at most
yeah people are fined for weed
which if you dont pay in CA, you forfeit your 4th amendment
Okay so you admit that the prison part was wrong
right?
not at all
i think that's a perfect concept
okay so then its not fines?
and its jailtime?
