I looked at my Ohio sample ballot today
On Issue 2, about legalizing use of cannabis. If passed, there would be a 10% tax added, on top of the 7% + sales tax. The extra money would go to specific funds: adult use, then quarterly to cannabis social equity and jobs fund, host community cannabis facilities fund, substance abuse and a control agency to be created.
I'm not going to use it myself, but I think 17% tax on an item is steep. I haven't voted yet, wondering if I should vote yes on this one?

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
