I don’t see much revenue being generated out of Prop 19, unless and until the federal government agrees to not prosecute anyone under federal law.
Tax money is not the reason to vote yes. The reason to vote yes is because it is immoral to allow the state to conduct a war on your fellow citizens (and on the citizens of Mexico, and elsewhere) over pot. Pure and simple.
For the $$$ to come in, the feds need to do away with drug prohibition laws and leave it up to the states, just like prostitution (still legal in Nevada) or gambling or (more on point) alcohol.
For example, Utah could allow only 3.2% “thc concentration” pot in public restaurants. You’ll have to join a club (for $1) to smoke the harder stuff.
Once the feds back off, you’ll see other states jump on the bandwagon for the $$. I am surprised Oregon is not ahead of California on the curve, like they were on assisted suicide.
