END CANNABIS PROHIBITION FOR TAX REVENUE

Cannabis was prohibited to protect investments and generate obscene
wealth for white, racist industrialists in the early part of the last
century. The conditions to end cannabis prohibition today are the same
as they were for alcohol - the hunger for tax revenue .
