POT OF GOLD
RE "Smoking marijuana far from harmless," (Aug. 8): Thanks for the
Sunday Sun comment on legalizing pot.
However, you have missed the point - that California and other states
are about to go bankrupt if they do not find new sources of tax revenue.
Any taxpayer can abuse a drug. Drinking alcohol is bad, smoking is
bad, smoking pot is bad; but pot is an underground economy full of
money and should pay its share of taxes.

(Those states are near bankruptcy because of overspending, not because
of a shortage of tax dollars)
