With respect to all. If you believe medical cannabis has no use, you are not a patient, at least one with experience, it would seem. Besides the remarkable SUPER LOW TOXICITY of cannabis.... over 50,000 to .1 compared to ASPIRIN!, the unique effect is easy to quantify for the citizens suffering debilitating processes where the alternative is VICODIN, PAXIL, VIAGRA, Valium, TUMS and other antacids, on and on and on. All fair market stuff. But ... better for who? San Diego? .... ahhh no. The world? diddo. The drug companies? ... / .
Here ya go... my point ..., The city should make money from this mandate. The licence should be $200 and the assumption of use and tax. The TAX should be 33%, fair enough for adminastrative load and fair for medical patients. Now, the profit goes to the Co-Op ... or ????. Why not the city and we all feel better? Do San Diego Co-Ops pay taxes? Citizens WANT to follow the law and pay fair tax. TAX it, It is your duty as Government to collect fair tax vs risk/burden. With some basic math.... this is fair for PATIENTS, and all citizens of San Diego. This doesn't need to be a burden when it an actual opportunity for the city.
