Golden Fleece – Issue #49

I’m High, I’m Hungry and I Want a Grande Caramel Macchiato

Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) reports that Oregon is one of only three states that allow medical marijuana card holders who get food stamps to deduct the cost of their “Mary Jane” equipment from their income taxes.

Fire up your bong, inhale some good Colombian weed and their reasoning will be crystal clear.

You see, using marijuana increases the appetite. So you need more food. Allowing tax deductions for drug equipment lowers your taxable income, which makes you eligible for the extra food stamps you need  because you smoked the pot. Got it?

But what about that Grande Caramel Macchiato you’re craving  to wash down the grub you bought with your Oregon Trail Card? Not a problem – just whip out your Trail Card at Starbucks.

Now you’re feeling great, your tummy’s full and you’re ready for the next hit.

Is this a great state or what?
