Medical & recreational use of cannabis flourishes in Nevada – some of it legal - most of it illegal – all of it untaxed

   If marijuana were treated the way alcohol is (with strong restrictions on driving under the influence and the possession and use by minors) Nevada could reap a tax windfall, while bringing some sense to our state’s drug policy by allowing adults to make their own choices. 

Law enforcement; state and local jails; and the courts would be freed-up to focus on authentic matters of public safety.

The ability to legally enjoy cannabis in a controlled environment would add immeasurably to the attractiveness of Las Vegas as a tourist destination, particularly with those of the “Baby Boomer” generation.
