While Rancho Cordova is proposing at $600/sqft tax on personal grows, it remains to be seen whether this can survive constitutional scrutiny. A government canā??t tax away your rights ā?? that was tried in 1937 with the Marihuana Tax Act and Dr. Timothy Leary sued the feds and won on the principle that you canā??t be forced to incriminate yourself in order to obey a law. Poll taxes were also found to be unconstitutional because you canā??t deprive someone of their right to vote just because they are poor.

However, even if a locality overtaxes personal grows, you still have the option of getting a Prop 215 rec and growing your marijuana untaxed...thats how you get around the personal grow tax bro
