Sure, luxury taxes should supplant income and property taxes everywhere.

You should be illegal.

But no, for real. Even as an occasional recreational user, I'm all for sensible taxes on Marijuana. While sensible use is perfectly healthy, just as with alcohol, it helps to provide a powerful argument for legalization efforts and benefits local economies. A win, win.

Marijuana should be legal, and it should be taxed just like any other product would be.

This, but if marijuana is legal, tax it at like 10,000%, so, that no one buys it

Lol, then there's no point legalizing it.

As a serious opinion, an option that would be much better than the status quo would be to have marijuana legal, but taxed and regulated. This prevents non violent drug users from being imprisoned for buying something of less or similar harm than alcohol or tobacco (tobacco literally kills thousands of people, marijuana kills none, yet marijuana is the illegal one). If it is taxed and regulated, the government earns revenue (which can mitigate the harm that will occur from marijuana use regardless of whether or not it is legal) and regulation ensures it is used as safely and responsibly as possible (since the War on Drugs the potency of unregulated black market marijuana has skyrocketed, thus significantly increasing its risks). The best approach from many different goals, but particularly harm reduction, is to legalize it responsibly.

It's amusing people don't understand that anyone that wants it has easy access to it already.
