All that legalization will do is just change the distribution channel.

Yes, from criminals to law-abiding businesspeople.

The price might actually go up

Government has managed not to tax into existence any significant black market in alcohol - nor, except for a few liberal east coast cities, in tobacco.

Besides if it’s legal and everybody has it there will be even more break-ins by the self-entitled freeloaders...

Why would they be doing more breaking in then than they do now? Sounds like it requires more effort and focus that someone who's high would want to exert.

In the past, yeah maybe but things are changing quickly. Things are not the way they used to be.
