Police find 60-plus pot plants, arrest 2
60 plants producing 1 pound each = 960 ounces
960 ounces taxed @ $50.00 each = $48,000
$48,000 a week @ 55 weeks = $2,640,000 a year
I willing to bet that would be a least 10 times higher in the state of Arkansas
So I am roughly estimating that Arkansas has the potential to collect an estimated $26,400,000 in additional revenue. Plus the saving to taxpayers for the incarceration of these non violent people which is estimated at $22,000 a year minimum per person.
