As long as it isn't, a few people are making the big money. It should be taxed the same way that cigarettes are. And the price should be the same as cigarettes. Please understand, I am not suggesting that people should smoke. I did. I had no problem stopping - I just waited too long! Now I shall be on oxygen for the rest of my life. The rules for marijuana should be the same as for cigarettes: only allowed for people of certain ages and in certain places. The tax revenue could be used for green projects - solar power, wind power, cars that run on electricity. Think about it! Marilyn Winney Hillsboro - --- MAP posted-by: Richard Lake
