because a fat tax would be immoral and just wrong (even though it would bring in a ridiculous amount of revenue since everyone in the US is fat) and the sin tax would be like the church coming in and saying you had to empty your wallets cuz you offended God . . .
Anyways, I'm all for taxes on drugs since it forces people to rethink doing them, especially tobacco. I wonder how high or low the taxes would be if ganja were legalized and sold in various outlets.
