i think we mostly agree here soquote:About 51 percent of the tax revenue was allocated toward educational purposes, including $117.9 million used to fund school construction projects, while another 14.1 percent went towards substance abuse prevention and treatment programs, the report said. is a net good in my eyes. would it be better if this funding wasn't due to a high sales tax on a non-addictive substance? yeah definitely, maybe once colorado springs is destroyed and we rip up TABOR we can fund better education edirectly

so either you go to jail, leaving your kid under the care of ??? or you have to cough up 2000 dollars which will then affect their meals, school supplies, medical care etc all because your lovely car from 15 years ago broke down a few times or whatever gently caress this

ex post facho posted:like i get how high cigarette and alcohol taxes are regressive bc they are addictive af and are consumed in much greater proportion by poor folks, is the same true of weed even though it definitely does not have the same physically addictive properties? i honestly dont know It's not even what goods are taxed, it's that point of sale taxes are inherently regressive. A modest sales tax <10% isn't a huge problem, but a tax of say 50% point of sale targets poorer people much more then say a tax on production that is applied fairly with a progressive licensing scheme and other market regulations.

Maybe I'm wrong though or thinking about a different state.
