Not even 8 months after my home state of Arizona voted against recreational legalization in part due to meddling and hack science, Colorado has reported that since the beginning of the year they have made $620 million in sales with $95 million of it going to the state1.

Meanwhile, Jeff Sessions continues insisting that marijuana will lead to the fall of society.

    In SoCal tax money set aside for schools also went into "school construction projects". They put up a new chainlink fence on one school to replace one that didn't have anything wrong with it. Meanwhile teachers are asking parents for school supplies because there wasn't enough in the budget for the school to buy them. Long story short... Tax funds went to some politicians uncle that had a fence business.
