Thats kinda funny i dont think they could pull that off here without
acreeding that marijana is a taxable restricted substance instead of
prohibited. That would pave the way for leagalization and licensing gorw
ops just from that precedent

Local town required all pot sales to have a stamp, like a liquor stamp.
Those caught without the stamp have to pay the city a hefty fee. Guess the
city found away to increase their income, but the sale of stamps is quite
low. Hmmmm.

Drug Tax Stamp

The fact that dealing marijuana and controlled substances is illegal
does not exempt it from taxation. Therefore drug dealers are required
by law to purchase drug tax stamps.

The drug tax is due as soon as the dealer takes possession of the
marijuana or controlled substance. Payment of the drug tax will
purchase the drug tax stamps. Attach the stamp to the marijuana and/or
controlled substance immediately after receiving the substance. The
stamps are valid for 3 months. Drugs seized without stamps or having
expired stamps may result in criminal or civil penalties which may
include fines, seizure of property or liens against real estate.

A dealer is not required to give his/her name or address when
purchasing stamps and the Department is prohibited from sharing any
information relating to the purchase of drug tax stamps with law
enforcement or anyone else.

Purchasing drug tax stamps does not make possession of drugs legal.


Actually,...quite a number of states have or had pot stamps

them self determination under "play nice" rules.
