i think you're talking about the marihuana stamp tax act of 1937research this). first you have to have the marijuana to obtain the stamp, but you have to have the stamp to legally possess marijuana. so right there you are self-incriminating yourself. this was the only way Anslinger could make marijuana illegal. also,I don't think any stamps were ever made. they also outlawed machine guns this way.
Cas Reviewed by Cas on . Marijuana tax stamp I've noticed that some states have a tax stamp you can buy for marijuana..From what I understand, if you get busted, and you have paid the tax for your pot, there's certain fines that they can't make you pay, correct? Or maybe I understand this incorrectly, but I was hoping maybe someone could give me some insight into why you can pay taxes for something that's illegal to posess.. Rating: 5
