Well its only chance I see is if they can put a federal tax on it. Otherwise instead of southerners it could be hippies.

Still superseded by federal law, I'd bet.

CA Prison system is enormous, extremely fat in the wallet, and wants nothing more than more and more reasons to build more prisons. Add in Tobacco/Alcohol companies, and there is just a sea of money that stands between CA and legalization. Posted by unkbill on Mar. 25 2010,16:28

Don't really know but that is sarcasm isn't it? If they did have money they would be the first gov institute with money at lest in Cali. Posted by Troy on Mar. 25 2010,16:31

Sorry, to be more specific I was referring to the prison guard union, and the private companies that supply the prisons. The state itself is broke as shit. Which sucks, because they are the ones that have the most to gain from legalizing it. Posted by TheCatt on Mar. 25 2010,16:47
If they legalize, I'll visit just for the brownies

Of course with the proper permits. Those counties were brimming with money. Posted by Malcolm on Mar. 26 2010,08:20
I bet those counties also get raided by DEA agents.

There's an excellent episode of Bullshit on this subject.
