The taxes won't be an issue. They'll easily be swamped by lowered costs, eventually.

One major issue is retail store licenses; few cities are deciding to license stores, and they're not happening on day 1 (for the most part).

Another issue is licenses for growers. Currently growing licenses only allow 1 acre under cultivation, and it sounds like production will be nowhere near high enough to meet demand, at least initially.

It sounds like CA's start into the legal market will be a lot rockier than most.
