I believe that there are so many pot smokers in the US that if the government were to come up with a feasable way to tax the stuff there would be no federal defecit. Issue commercial, licensed growers permits for a percentage of the crops cash value and have a realistic penalty system in place for those who cheat the system. You will never stop people from using a plant that many feel is a gift from god. Sell joints in the liquor store with a state tax stamp. Think of all the money our state and federal government would have. We might even have enough left over to ensure that our kids will be able to get and education in school.
Just my .02 worth.
