Cannabis and Anarchy a Perfect Combination - Taxation is Theft
The only reason "Marijuana", better known by it's real name Cannabis is illegal is because the powers that shouldn't be can't make money off people growing it in their backyard. If they could find a way to make money or tax the grower who grows Cannabis in his backyard, it would be legal globally tomorrow. However, because they have no way to control the market, because free market forces and anarchistic systems cannot be fully controlled, cannabis is illegal. Also I think as most anarchists are marijuana users, and most free thinkers have used cannabis, I believe the elite might view cannabis as a threat to their control system. I think it likely goes a lot further than just propping up a extremely influential pharmaceutical industry that would be significantly hurt by the legalization of Marijuana. One can easily identify that the legalization of Cannabis is fairly insane when our society could use something to calm itself down and bring forth the type of companionship and tolerance needed, as Carl Sagan famously said,
The illegality of cannabis is outrageous, an impediment to full utilization of a drug which helps produce the serenity and insight, sensitivity and fellowship so desperately needed in this increasingly mad and dangerous world.
How to Tax Marijuana Growers?

So if the powers that be have no legitimate reasons to make Cannabis illegal, how are they going to make a profit off an industry full of anarchists, and people growing it for free? Regulate the industry to benefit the large producers, let GMO companies like Bayer-Monsanto enter the market and dominate it with lower prices due to subsidies and favorable regulations, so long as the large Marijuana producers pay taxes and donate to their favorite puppet politicians. Then just like every other industry the free market anarchist society of Cannabis growers will be taken over by large multinational corporations via regulation and the government picking the "winners" and "losers" in another industry. Just to ensure that they can enforce taxation and regulation on a market that has done just fine being an anarchistic system with no regulation, hence the reason anarchy and cannabis is a perfect match for each other, and the same reason we need to keep government's hands out of this basically free market. The best way to do that, grow it yourself in your backyard. As we can see from the above chart, taxing the Cannabis Industry is all they really care about, by why should we pay this completely corrupt Government more taxes to waste on their useless crap, when we can grow it for free in our backyard?
Anarchy Wins Again, The Backyard Marijuana Farm

That's right, as always the best way to defeat this system of centralized control and useless taxation is to use anarchistic ideas like growing the cannabis yourself. If everyone grew their own supply in their backyard, without any "permission", if we just stopped voluntarily complying they would have no recourse and no way to enforce their monopoly on violence to take money from everyone via taxation. They may have a large military police force, but it isn't large enough to go home to home and check everyone for their little backyard farm. Considering the price of an ounce of Cannabis these days, it is economically beneficial to any cannabis user to grow it for themselves anyways. Just like all anarchistic systems the government is afraid of such as "Little Free Libraries" or "My Tiny Homes Project LA", whenever the free thinkers of society (normally cannabis users), come up with an anarchistic voluntary solution, the powers that be are threatened by it. As can be seen by the attacks on people merely feeding the homeless, or giving them free homes, and the countless raids of independent cannabis dispensaries. So let's give them the middle finger and simply grow our own Cannabis in our backyards. The more of us growing, the less they will be able to stop it. No need to wait for legalization, the system depends of your voluntary consent, if we all stopped consenting at once, they would have no way to stop it.
My own plan for a Small Backyard Farm

I will be growing my own super dank indoor farm, fortunately for me it will be legal for me to do so. In Massachusetts the full legalization of Cannabis is up for vote in November. It is literally the only reason to go vote, unless you plan to write, "fire the government" like me for your candidate selection. However, as it will be legal to grow on your own property shortly in my state. I will be sharing my farm's status, and images and the like, also techniques and many more things for growing indoor hydroponic super high grade bud once my farm is going and the vote has passed. All the "steem" I get from this post will go towards better equipment for the small shed / greenhouse I have in mind. Thanks everyone, and please post pics and or links to your own set up!
