Problem is that they haven't taxed it heavily enough.

Applies to the Minimum Wage.

Applies to sales of MJ.

Applies to just about everything.

Marijuana taxes in Nevada are higher than California. (cultivation, transport, and sales) The taxes were set by.......wait for it......Republicans.

As far as a black market, I doubt there would be a black market when you can grow your own.

Ah, but there is. 10 years ago, shops would sell you an ounce of the kine for $500-$600. You could buy the same thing from any high school kid for $300.
