I, a firm member of National Organization to Reform Marijuana Laws, believe that the approval of Marijuana, because it should be sold in the United States, on the basis that it would drastically improve the tax income for the state.

Using Colorado as an example for the country; they charge 25 percent tax, which 15 goes for the public school constriction projects and 10 percent being a special tax to fund enforcement of regulations on the retail marijuana industry.

This tax would generate $33.5 million it's first year and $67 million the second year. Just imaging how much tax money can be generated, especially since the marijuana sales are anticipated to grow $2.34 billion in the United States in 2014.
