COULD POT PUT CALIFORNIA IN THE BLACK?
Smoke weed, help the state? Marijuana would be sold and taxed openly
in California to adults 21 and older if legislation proposed Monday
is signed into law.
Assemblyman Tom Ammiano, D-San Francisco, said his bill could
generate big bucks for a cash-starved state while freeing police to
focus on worse crimes.
"I think there's a mentality throughout the state and the country
that this isn't the highest priority and that maybe we should start
to reassess," he said.
