>>>>Apparently...hahaha. I suppose that's just another reason why I think it should just be 100% legal - if nothing else it would keep some of the money involved out of the hands of criminals.

>>>Probably all of it. Anyone can grow it. It's one of the few things where it's nearly impossible to put a meter and charge for the flow. It just can't be centralized.

>>I disagree. We learned during the time booze was illegal in this country what happens....it made Al Capone one if the richest men in the world and the mafia very powerful. Now sure - you can still buy illegal booze and even make your own - but very few people do that. I believe the same would be true for pot.

>But there's no crime syndicate producing booze in the woods and selling it in secret places, is there?
Not anymore because they made booze legal - which is my whole point. Right now there are a huge number of murders everyday in Mexico because of the illegal drug trade. If you make it legal - then these murdering drug dealers are suddenly out of business.
>If anyone can, doesn't mean everyone will. But it breaks the monopoly. Supply is local, there's no network of distributors.
There is no legal network of distributors - but I assure you there is a network (known as "cartels" in this biz)
