There are two reasons why illegal drugs are taxed (in Kansas):

  • Taxing the Underground Economy – The fact that the business of dealing marijuana and controlled substances is illegal does not exempt it from taxation. Legitimate business transactions are taxed. Dealing drugs is a large part of a previously untaxed underground economy.
  • Providing a Source of Revenue – 25% of drug tax collections are allocated to the State’s General Fund.

By the way…

for all my international viewers… I am very sorry, we suck.

I would like to think that I don’t suck…

But… in simply being American… I must suck.

We can have such horrible opinions of other cultures knowing a bare minimum, if anything at all about them.

How then, can we expect others to not have horrible opinions for the things that are known to be true, let alone current and well documented, about us.

In another lifetime I might want to be reborn French, or as a field mouse.
