If you go buy a case of beer for you and your friends, does that mean you're going to try it?

Adam Carolla Show
Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

You have intent to sell the other beers off because you have multiple containers?

The numbers that came out of the University of Boston are that we currently spend or we could save $7.7 billion in cannabis prohibition costs nationally and then turn around if we tax similar to alcohol, $6.2 billion in taxes nationwide.

That's a $13 billion margin.

Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

We're not trying to save the economy, but that's a pretty good chunk.

Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

Taxes.

That's the University of Boston.

If we taxed it similar to other goods like bread, it would be about $2.2 billion if we taxed it similar to alcohol.

Adam Carolla Show
Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

It would be $6.2 billion.

You actually almost bring us right into jury immunity.

Adam Carolla Show
Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

As a culture, we stopped prosecuting on those crimes as, as you say, what were they thinking?

Adam Carolla Show
Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

The jury stopped convicting and we have that opportunity here.

Adam Carolla Show
Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

Jury immunity means that if you

Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

have a cannabis case in court you can choose to not convict and nothing bad will happen to you as a juror so we can stop convicting on these cannabis crimes if that happens they're going to stop bringing them to court because prosecutors don't like to lose so we as a society have that civil ability and responsibility to stop convicting on these crimes if we don't feel people should go to jail for it anymore

Adam Carolla Show
Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

That's a lie.

Adam Carolla Show
Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

That's a blatant lie.

Adam Carolla Show
Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

I think that's one of the issues that we're miseducating our youth.

Adam Carolla Show
Mike Tollin + Ben Browning (Carolla Classics)

And when they walk in and we have all these horror stories about what pot's going to do to you and nothing bad happens, why should they believe us when we talk about methamphetamines or cocaine?

Adam Carolla Show

Excluding myself.
