This is worth a bump!
The Oregon Cannabis Tax Act 2012 is a citizen’s initiative campaign to regulate marijuana and restore hemp. Just as ending alcohol prohibition and regulating that market has protected society, regulating marijuana will help wipe out crime. Restoring hemp, made from the seeds and stems of the marijuana plant for fuel, fiber and food, will put Oregon on the cutting edge of exciting new sustainable green industries and create untold multitudes of new jobs.
When this groundbreaking legislation is passed, it will:
- Regulate the legal sale of marijuana to adults through state-licensed stores
- Allow adults to grow their own marijuana.
- License Oregon farmers to grow marijuana for state-licensed stores.
- Allow unlicensed Oregon farmers to grow cannabis hemp for fuel, fiber and food.
- Raise an estimated $140 million a year by taxing commercial cannabis sales to adults.
- Save an estimated $61.5 million as law enforcement, corrections and judicial costs.
