CA taxes...WOW! Just got my RX

filled and I got a copy of the new taxes. It is almost the same for both recreational and medical. State sales...15%, County (San Diego)...7.75%, Local Municipality for recreational only...5%. Total for recreational...27.75% and medical...22.75%.

An 1/8 for top shelf flower is $55-60 before taxes.

There are Women's Marches 2018 planned in many Canadian cities

and around the US and the world on Jan. 20th (and some on Jan. 21st). Here is a list to see if you are near one of them. You do not need to be a woman to participate and it is free. If you RSVP and they mention tickets it is purely for a head count for the organizers to plan accordingly. So far there are over 230 marches planned!

About BigmanPigman

I am 57, retired teacher and illustrator, life-long dem., activist, union member. Also I do not use social media and I'm technologically retarded. I love dogs, rock music and swearing (a lot). My 17 year old "puppy" died on June 2, 2020. She grew up listening to Animals (Pink Floyd). She has kept me sane through the tRump years, not easy, and has given me endless love, companionship, kisses and tail wags.
