Congrats to Colorado
Author: Scott Hesselbacher

Would anyone dispute that Colorado is ready to reap a windfall in
taxes from the tourism that'=C2=80=C2=99s sure to befall them when people

realize that they may partake of their favorite herbal remedy without
going paranoid that they'=C2=80=C2=99ll be incarcerated for such a harmle
ss
pastime?

Good for you, Colorado, for showing courage in this area. If problems
do arise that a ton of money can'=C2=80=C2=99t handle, then just reinstat
e
prohibition. Also, hemp makes a very useful, sustainable material
that may help with the conservation of those beautiful forests. Good
luck in this experiment!
