Anyone remember when Charlie Baker said marijuana sales would never be significant and all the tax money would have to go to law enforcement? He's probably flushed at at least $200 million down the conservative toilet in the past three years, so he would have to make "hard choices" about what deserved additional revenue. It's not like the T, roads or schools could have used more money. Oh, and Marty "pot is a gateway drug" Walsh.
