Just my 2c on this, but operating a dispensary and working from donations is not selling. Donations have completely different rules in the tax law. I think it may be time to talk to an attorney about forming a non-for-profit corporation to handle the "business" side of this. However, not being a lawyer, I'm not sure of the legalities of forming a charter to preform a business conducting an illegal act. The state may reject your charter on these grounds.

This is just as murky as them trying to tax the profits from an illegal act and looks to be the beginnings of a very interesting fight toward legalization to me. You know that legalization is going to happen because of pressure such as this... not from a president who one day decides that it will be a good idea to make it legal.
