There is a bigger picture in the design. If this system is implemented, there might not have to be welfare for the Farmer. This profit sharing might be enough to covers costs during rough seasons. You could change it that for every 100 acres they "Actively Farm", they have the Rights to license X amount of plants to a corporate grower. Again, why should anyone but Farmers be allowed to profit huge off of growing Marijuana? It's an honor to have a comment from someone who comments very little..;)
This idea was a revenue sharing and not a tax. It was only for active farms. Any farm not active will not get any participation shares. How many 100 to 300 acre farms are active in the USA? Divide that by 7.5% of the gross sales of all Marijuana sold in the USA. Ideally, it will help reduce interest expenses on Farms because they have a supplemental income helping pay down debt. This will indirectly help reduce food costs.

I just grew up on a farm and get sick of all the games with government money.
So many people make a living never intending to make a crop or even having the capability to do it. Yet they are raking in the money.
We always just grew crops and sold them.
