The Governor expected the internet tax to generate $317 million in new tax revenue.
One word Governor - Hemp.
SELL California Gold - you will have the "goldrush" on again.
Don't stop at just medical pot - but legalize marijuana and regulate it.
Did you hear the key word? Regulate the growing, harvesting and sales.
(Tax them. Have licensing rules and regs and have yearly fees associated with the process)
