I could get behind this. But shouldn't the braces be paid for by the schools? Not the regions directly?

Well The money needed for the braces will be given to the schools by the new tax. Whatever left will be given to area's of the budget that need it.

     $3.00 applied to what? Each ounce? Each joint? Each transaction? I'd suggest something more specific than that. Also, when setting the regional marijuana tax, please remember that marijuana is already subject to a 32% federal tax, pursuant to the National Sin Tax Act & the Amendment to the Marijuana Legalization and Taxation Act.

IDK, Yelnoc came up with it. I just want this bill to pass. This is my only goal for this term.

$3 for a transaction is a steep price, I'd say maybe $.50 is reasonable, if I'm buying a dime bag I'm not gonna pay an extra three bucks...not that Iwould know.

Why is being taken in an ambulance so important? Define injury...if the player gets punched in the gut by another player but nothing more than that, are you still going to take him to the hospital? That is what the bill sounds like.

     The injury is qualified as being serious, however. If the player gets punched in the gut but is perfectly fine afterwards (maybe given a minute or two to shake it off), I am quite confident that that would not be considered a serious injury.

I am talking about serious injuries, like broken bones, torn acl's, or brain injuries.  You don't have to be an ass about a simple mistake I forgot to make

PiT, let's say $3 an ounce.

GPORTER, I defined in the bill that an injury must be "serious" to warrant an ambulance ride. 

     $3.00 applied to what? Each ounce? Each joint? Each transaction? I'd suggest something more specific than that. Also, when setting the regional marijuana tax, please remember that marijuana is already subject to a 32% federal tax, pursuant to the National Sin Tax Act & the Amendment to the Marijuana Legalization and Taxation Act.

Look at tobacco taxes.  They get up to the mid-four dollar range.

Seriously injured is definitly not a punch to the gut. It means debilitating injury, like can't walk.

     Be it resolved, X Emperor PiT
