Looks like they have a couple options?

Enforcement: Increase taxes and make the nation a police state, which will increase market value and profit margins for growers because of reduced supply. A never ending escalation on both sides, until anarchy or revolt.

Legalization: Tax it, set up treatment programs, and raise a nation of potheads. Let the economy collapse and maybe they wise up.


As long as demand remains, the stuff will be a marketable product.
