Last fall, the voters of Michigan approved the use of marijuana for medical purposes. Because a doctors approval was required for all applicants, the State of Michigan assumed that there would be few applicants. However, that proved not to be the case.
With over 10,000 applicants still seeking approval, the requests are overwhelming the system. I guess the medical profession views marijuana in little different light. Either that or they are getting paid under the table. Regardless, if we tax the crap out of it, maybe we could continue to support public education..
I don’t foresee the state excessively taxing approved marijuana treatment similar to vice taxes of cigarettes and beer. Unless the state begins excessively taxing similar treatments such as chemo-therapy and pain medications (to my knowledge they are not doing this) then I do not think they will marijuana – although you raise a point about the masses that are overwhelming the system, I really think in time that will be simply regulated, but who knows..
