SHIFT GAS TAX ONTO POT

I remember when Larry Campbell was Vancouver's mayor he said legalize 
pot and tax the hell out of it. Why not?

More deaths are caused by booze than pot, and it is a known fact that 
fights are caused by too much drinking rather than too much 
pot-smoking. This sounds like a good opportunity to shift the gas tax 
over to the pot tax.
