RG:  "The Oregon Department of Revenue announced Wednesday that it has received $6.84 million in taxes on marijuana sales for January and most of February" ........   I think I see what field is ripe to pour tons of money into for  lane county business development.  it's a rapidly growing sector one might say.  with these numbers , states themselves will push for legalization. they will clamor for it.  i'd be interested to see comparative financial numbers for legal gambling revenue VS legal marijuana revenue in a year or so.  which "sin" is our nation's favorite?  so the numbers mean a lot is being sold/ a lot is being used and yet our crime rate, death rate and IQ haven't budged out of the norm.  no massive manson type family groups going out in crazed frenzies to eat babies, no pot- zombie apocalypse.  and for all the poo-poo'ers still going on about the dangers of pot - put the booze bottle...the cigarette...the pill bottle...the 4th big mac...the gun...the video games ..etc..down.
