beep! beep! click, boom! analog beats and drifty guitar collages define the minimalist dreampop that is venus beltran. lay down, close your eyes, and count to 10. when you awake, you will feel refreshed and energetic.
Tom Ammaniano (state assemblyman from San Francisco) just introduced a bill into the state assembly to tax and regulate marijuana as we do alcohol -- i.e., it would be legalized, taxed, and regulated. Like alcohol, sales would be limited to folks over 21, penalties would be in place for dui, sale to minors, etc. in other words, it sounds like the right approach. The bill's official number is AB390, and more info will probably be available soon at www. norml. org and www. mpp. org.
If you have a minute, call and/or email your state assembly person and Senator to encourage them to support the bill. You can look up their contact info online based on your zip code: http://www. legislature. ca. gov/port-zipsearch. html.
Feel free to pass this along. The bill is fighting an uphill battle against a vast legacy of misguided and uninformed policy, and it will only have a chance of passing if people speak up in favor.
This bill will provide California with one billion dollars of revenue each year (each ounce is taxed $50)
