Also, tax revenues exceed their expectations by so much, they gave money back to taxpayers. ALL the win.

I would love to see my state, NC, become a marijuana production state. Our urban areas are popping economically, but the rural areas are suffering. A valuable agricultural crop like marijuana to replace tobacco would be great (if we could keep some of the jobs and revenue in-state).
