Но дрочат налогами (а точнее, отсутствием вычетов) не Калифорния же, а федералы.

@goren The root of the weed industry’s tax problem dates back to a 1961 Supreme Court ruling that says even illicit income is taxable. That allowed a Minnesota man busted for selling weed, cocaine, and amphetamines to successfully claim in 1974 that he could write off the cost of his packaging materials, scale, and other expenses. Congress struck back in 1982 by enacting 280E, which states “no deduction or credit shall be allowed” for any business that “consists of trafficking in controlled substances.”
