SF suspends pot tax, blames cheap illegal marijuana

From KOMO News

SAN FRANCISCO (TND) — An ordinance suspending San Francisco's Cannabis Business Tax was unanimously approved by city supervisors Tuesday.

San Francisco Supervisor Rafael Mandelman, the ordinance's author, said in a statement suspending the business tax on cannabis will help support legal cannabis retailers as they struggle to compete with illegal cannabis sellers.

Illegal sellers of cannabis skirt paying those taxes and are able to offer products at a lower cost, which entices consumers to purchase their product instead of legal sellers.

Wull, dang. Who would have figured consumers would look for less expensive, tax-free, dope? Illegal? Pssh.
