Legal marijuana in Oregon is already taxed at a much higher rate than alcohol or cigarettes. Some equity would be appreciated, esp since alcohol and cigarettes are statistically proven to kill more people and have a high correlation to both mental illness and a high cost to communities. Marijuana is benign by comparison. City Council is targeting the wrong sin for a sin tax. Marijuana has medicinal benefits that cigarettes, alcohol and sugar cannot claim. We should make it MORE accessible, not less. Punitive taxation on a burgeoning new industry that benefits mankind makes zero sense.
