So you say. I challenged Five O'clock Somewhere to find just 3 of these "numerous" posts. How about you find 1? 

In the meantime....here are the marijuana tax estimates from an ADN article: "Vote No on 2" campaign against marijuana legalization estimated the state would collect $5.1 million in tax revenue, while the Alaska Cannabis Institute, which held marijuana business seminars in Alaska, produced its own estimate of $20.4 million. The Marijuana Policy Group estimated potential tax revenue of $56 million." The State of Alaska estimated marijuana tax would bring in between $5.1 and 19.2 million annually.

So, the most aggressive estimate was for $56 million a year. Here's a link where you can see what Alaska's state oil tax revenue is - http://www.alaskabudget.com/revenue/ - but, I'll save you a click. It's counted in BILLIONS.
