Jack in the box has been running stoner-themed commercials for years. There used to be one where the guy's Jack bobblehead told him to order 30 tacos.

I worked out some numbers last year based on a dollar a gram excise tax and came up with $20 billion a year in revenue.

Let the IRS grow it and distribute it. Cut out the middle man.

Too much of a temptation for the "Field Agents."

24hr Jack in the Box on just about every corner here. Stoners have money, most are normal functional people.
And yes, legalize it. Oh wait, my state did

The best stoner commercial was the one where the guy in the drive-in ordered 99 tacos for 2 cents.

After explaining that it is 2 tacos for 99 cents, Jack asks him if he really thought he could eat 99 tacos. The stoner pauses and says "Yeah."
