Musical Marijuana

[Welcome Industry Radar readers!]

Musical legend Carlos Santana wants President Obama to legalize pot.
"Legalize marijuana and take all that money and invest it in teachers and in education. You will see a transformation in America."
Invest marijuana profits (or taxes on the sale and/or profit) to invest in education. Interesting concept. Since Congress is adding a tobacco tax to fund the SCHIP health care plan, why not legalize pot and tax it for education?

Maybe he is on to something.
"I really believe that as soon as we legalize and decriminalize marijuana we can actually afford a really good governor who won't keep taking money away from education and from teachers and send him back to Hollywood where he can do 'D' movies and we can get an 'A' governor," continued Santana, referring to former movie star and current California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger.
Here in Georgia we legalized gambling (state run lottery) and used that tax to fund education. Of course we are still 48th or so in the nation but imagine where we would be if not for the lottery tax on the poor?
