Our sources tell us that a bag of high quality "reefer" that would be sold on the street for $50 for an eighth of an ounce was being sold for $75-80 in most dispensaries.
If there was a $25 tax on an eighth of an ounce of marijuana, like there seems to be on medical marijuana, the government would reap $3,200 per pound in taxes. To make $1 billion in taxes, California would have to sell about 320,000 pounds of the green stuff, the equivalent of 14 tons.
