SENIOR CARE STRATEGY NEEDS REVAMPING

Re: An unhealthy state of affairs, Editorial Aug. 24

If we taxed the sale of recreational marijuana, as we do with alcohol
and tobacco, it would go a long way to funding the necessary care for
seniors that's presently woefully lacking. One only has to look to
U.S. states such as Colorado to see the potential of the project.

Tax recreational marijuana and put that revenue solely toward the care
of seniors. They took care of us; it's the least we can do for them.
