CA Assemblyman proposes legalising and taxing pot

The San Francisco Weekly Blog reports that Assemblyman (whatever the hell that is) Tom Ammiano will introduce legislation on Monday to try and legalize and tax marijuana in California in an attempt to earn around $1 billion a year for the state. The idea is to make cultivation, sale and use of marijuana legal if you’re over 21, and set a tax of around $50US per ounce on it’s sale. It’s an interesting idea!
