By the Numbers
Yale University's Budget Lab unit predicts that implementing a federal tax on cannabis could generate $57.9 billion in revenue over 10 years. This tax would be calculated based on the THC content in cannabis products. However, some research indicates that the THC levels stated on product labels may not be reliable.
The approach of basing tax calculations on THC content provides a more direct approach to the products' actual potential. Nevertheless, for this approach to be accurately implemented, the THC levels stated on product labels must be reliable.
As the cannabis industry grows, issues of taxation and regulation become increasingly important. Efforts are ongoing to increase tax revenue and better regulate the industry.
