Recreational marijuana has raised prices in multiple states
I’m definitely in support of taxes as a member of a free society, however they need to have a limit at the same time, and i do not think that rampant taxes are constructive for monetary stability across all socio demographics.
In fact, I think some of the people who are supposed to benefit from those taxes are the a singles that are hit the hardest when they have to spend my money them… That’s why some people had to transport out of certain states.
They couldn’t afford the rising state taxes on top of the income taxes they had to spend my money out of their paychecks every other week, however and when that happens, the only people that are left to spend my money the taxes are the wealthy! How do you expect a toiling class to survive in those states to fill the jobs that are properly relying on the toiling class. Those are some of the same states that have seen huge increases in recreational Cannabis prices over the last 2 to 3 years… Unblessedly, those states are raising their taxes on recreational Cannabis prices up upwards to 30 to 40% on each purchase. I sincerely do not think if I could afford to use cannabis to the same degree that I do now if I lived in a single of those states! My state still only has medical cannabis and the prices have been going down as more and more cannabis companies enter the market to compete. The higher the supply goes up, the lower the price goes down as demand stays relatively consistent, then back when I was in school, these states with high cannabis taxes were some of the only places in the country where you could undoubtedly buy cannabis from a legal dispensary.
