Ok i dont know the real numbers but i will just toss some out there.
Lets say 100,000 packs of smokes are sold everyday. So in a seven day
week 700,000 packs would be sold. In one 30 day month 147,000,000 packs
are sold, so in a years time 12 months there would be 1,764,000,000
packs sold. now remeber the reall numbers are much higher than this.

Now lets say the gov. legalizes pot and decides to market and sell it
just like smokes are. So we would need to figure the cost of growing the
plant from start to harvest. but only enough for one pack of "joints."
Then we need to figure how much with it cost to make these cost of
papers included. ok long story short it costs on average the smoke
compainys about $.78 up to $1.13 a pack so we will just say pot will
cost $3 a pack to make. so $3 to make one pack of pot smokes. So lets
add some taxes on here let just add $7 on so they would be sold for $10
a pack.

Now lets say only half as many packs of pot smokes are sold.
that would generate $6,174,000,000 in taxes just off of pot!

For thouse ppl who would want to grow there own the gov could sell them
yearly growing permits, and with out a proper permit growing would still
be illegal.

Yeah? Dateline did a story on this several years ago..........don't
look for it in your lifetime............AS for me hell with the govt. I
say God put it here who the f' is man to say it can't grow?

For you religous buffs that say "He also put the tree of knowledge here
also" well yes he did, but he said not to eat of it, he said nothing
about chopping it down and burning the stump.

LMAO at burning the stump!!!!
and yes the bible does say to use all seed bearing plants and herbs
Gen 1:29 And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed,
which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is
the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

Don't give a shit who says what, I'm smokin it and if no one else likes
it they can kiss my ass..legal not legal screw it I'm still smokin it

Same here It helps my mind slow down, I am hipper active (ADHD) with a
little pot i can sit down and focus on small trasks, other wise I can
only tackle large tasks that will alow me to focus on many things at
once. Damn adhd

Keeps me on an even keel allows me to write where my meds just make me a
freakin zombie and I can't even write a sentence much less a whole poem

yes CrazyJ I know the bible fairly well esp that part :)

recently it hads been discovered that it may help prevent alzheimers
diseases and some other neurological disorders

so the question there is do you wanna trade short term memory to keep
long term memory lol

OMg IM soooo HIGH right now :P <////////////@ ~ `

and think about this How much revenue is being brought in now I mean
think about the whole of it all, houses, boats, cars, planes cash, bank
accounts the govt is getting plenty of money now with it being just
like it is

and it gives the cops job security

Cannabis conesuers!! LOL

They way I see the cop job security, is that Cops would be freed up to
find and distroy the hard drugs, the drugs that accualy kill ppl

Humm... no one wants to challange this huh? ok cool
