http://www.addictinginfo.org/2013/01/11/majority-of-hawaiians-want-to-legalize-marijuana-study-shows/A recent poll of 603 Hawaiian voters revealed that 57% favored decriminalization of possession and use of the marijuana plant in that state. The respondents self-identified as Republicans, Democrats and Independents, and about 60% of them were Caucasian and had college degrees. Native Hawaiians generally feel the same way, saying that if Hawai’i were to revert to a Kingdom, “pakalolo” would be legal there.
Hawai’i spends about $12 million a year on enforcement of current laws, which includes searching for crops in barely accessible areas of the state, including the Puna district on the Big Island, a popular growing area. With projections of up to $11.3 million in annual revenue, popular opinion is turning towards legalization and taxation.
makes sense if you save 12 mil in enforcement and make 11.3 in revenue that's tantamount to 23.3 in revenue,
Maui Wowie ahhhhh 60's 70's
