Well, I would lecture you about how you have no idea what you are talking about when it comes to marijuana, but you already know that. If you did, you would know legalizing and taxing it is a no brainer.

Have you seen all the rampant violence and overdoses in Colorado and Washington? Right, all we've seen is the tax revenue.
During the first month of recreational marijuana sales, Colorado's licensed dispensaries generated a total of more than $14 million, putting about $2 million of tax revenue into state coffers in the process. Revenue was in line with expectations. Any politician who ignores the future data will have trouble explaining why.
