5 arrested in drug bust | Iowa City Press Citizen | press-citizen.com: "He faces an additional count of distribution of a taxable substance without a tax stamp."

In Iowa you have to buy a "tax stamp" for your illegal drugs. I will fall out of my chair the day I read a drug bust story in which the perpetrator actually has a tax stamp. Supposedly you can buy one (from where I do not know because they don't advertise it) and you won't be targeted by law enforcement. If these guys where smart, they'd buy one and then if busted, they could claim they were targeted because they had one.
