Ask Wheaton, Illinois how that worked out for alcohol...

There were more places to buy liquor in Wheaton’s surrounding communities than any other Illinois community after Wheaton colleges Christians got city council to vote no on liquors in Wheaton.

1. A lot of Illinois towns are prohibiting sales within their city limits. The law provides for this.

However, it will still be legal to possess and privately use pot in those towns. There will simply be no sales (and subsequently, no tax revenue).

I expect attitudes will change when the world doesn't end, and towns with dispensaries are benefiting from pot income.

2. I lived in Naperville for a year.

Kind of a snooty town. Not overly rich, but definitely white.

3. Went to a lot of meeting with ATT there and always enjoyed the Bears/Green Bay rivalry at the local

bars. I suspect it was probably just some self-righteous folks making a lot of meaningless noise.

4. I wonder if they will still

get any of those tax dollars collected from legal store in other communities. I would hope not.
