Sweetening The Pot: Taxing Medical Marijuana Reaps Benefits in San Jose
ByKelly Phillips Erb May 16, 2011

Sodas. Tanning. Wine. Hookers. In the scramble to raise revenues, city, state and federal governments have considered slapping taxes on nearly everything they can figure that qualifies as a vice. While some of those efforts have been derided (remember criticisms of the fat tax?) and subsequently derailed, a few of these sin taxes have been…
