as someone who works in a jail with a couple hundred more people than it is supposed to hold, with a large number of people there on possession warrants for under 100 bucks....i think it would be a decent plan if done right. not only would you be able to tax it, but you would save BILLIONS in the prison systems.

everyone cries about "Americans should buy American cars" and not send their money to japan/Europe, yet all this drug money is sent to central and south America and that is not a problem?

legalize it and we can have fda controlled farming IN THIS COUNTRY of one of the biggest cash crops in the world

so.........

taxes = revenue
farming = revenue
saving money in the prison systems and law enforcement = revenue

and not only that, your not sending tons of American dollars to drug lords known to have terrorist ties......
