I thought legalization was supposed to do away with the criminal element? ;-)

“Now, laughing friends deride.
Tears I cannot hide.
Whoooooaooooo.
You must realize
When the dope hype dies
Smoke gets in your eyes.”

The end of Prohibition didn’t end moonshiners.

When the initiative to legalize pot was campaigning in Washington state, the promise was that legal pot would put the black market out of business. As someone who prosecutes dopers for a living, the whole assertion was laughable. It was probably being paid for by the cartels.

Looks like that “tax the hell out of it” gig isn’t going to work out.

The illegal market got bigger, what a non-shocker
