So was GST and PST... they were both "small taxes" that were never supposed to be around after ww2. so what's your point? Nobody cared about it...and yet we still pay a "war tax" 65 years later.Quote:

Also those little tax stamps from back in the day before it became illegal were only very few and practically impossible to get ,so it might as well have been illegal then too...but I guess it grew everywhere back then anyway.Taxing wont work.
Look at what people had to go through during prohabition of alcohol.Exactly what we are going threw now.Moonshine factories hiden on there land...Ever watch the dukes of Hazzard.
We are going to have to start taking some action guys.
I don't care if I can crews into 7/11 and buy a pack of white widow chewing weed.I'm happy with the way the cannabis club thing is going,it needs improvment and the prices should be a tad lower but I'd rather go to a cannabis club to buy it then a regular everyday store with kids around and nieghbors and shit. :D :thumbsup: :cursing:
Did you guys ever heard about a place called Amsterdam??? I mean, no need to fully legalize it, the word is decriminalize...Legal up to 28 gram or an ounce...Lil shop, like bars or coffee shop like in amsterdam could sell it, without adding those more than expensive chemicals put into cigs...Government could still tax the shops on their total revenue...So therefor everybody is happy...Please tell me if you don't agree with those points and why...
I always thought that if marijuana was legalized. Some big rich company would hire a bunch of NASA scientists or something and grow the best and most potent weed ever. Just trying to look on the bright side.
and you could pay that tax with hemp.Quote:

Anybody work somewhere that wastes paper? Anybody know how renewable hempfields are in comparison to forests mature enough for paper? Second, GROW. Please, everyone grow. Spread seeds in protected places whenever you can. And last, be a contributing member of society who uses. If you're young, grow up to be an important figure in your community... and do it smoking grass all the while! This is how a new understanding of pot will come about.
The Govt. has no reason to legalize it in the United States, and frankly I wouldn't change anything if it were legal, I dont think anyone in this forum would change a thing, besides maybe grow outside and smoke in public.
I would still conceal it because of the social stigma associated with entheogenics. Legal or Illegal Im still gonna smoke.
In the mid "70"s the price for a gram of cola was $100 and a ounce of Columbian was $25. The price of coke hasn't risen but the price of bud is completely out of line now! Even if there were a tax I think the price of a good bag would be WAY lower than it is now! :thumbsup:
if it were legalized, there would be entire organizations formed instantly to setup growth and distribution centers, regulation, indexing of breeding, and a breed database for crossing and collaboration, group ware and breeding centers, auctions and selling resources, instant boom in bud smoking technology. It would happen practically overnight. Head shops and bars will be popping up all over the country, in almost every town. It's like an industry just dieing to explode and flood the market with massive ammounts of good weed, unique weed, rainbow colored weed. There would be more weed throughout this country than in any country ever before. It would be good.....
economic boom = bad for war
