Fixed for you. The end-user, even with the tax in place would be much cheaper than buying off the street. Said tax revenue could be specifically earmarked toward treatment programs and inner-city infrastructure rebuilding.

The only losers in this proposition would be the “private” prison industry, some law enforcement agencies who use the forfeiture statutes as their own private piggy bank, and of course the drug gangs/cartels who have their source of income cut out from under them.

Taxing profit might be a good development for recreational stuff like MJ. Hard stuff should be free under medical control. (Yeah-I want Obamacare to push heroin. Might as well get that nontroversy going.)
