Will legalizing pot solve any of the problems caused by alcohol? If not why are they relevant?

[Quick1]

Because they prove your hypocritical stance that alcohol can remain legal, even with harmful side effects, yet marijuana can't become legal.

I never said legalizing pot will solve those problems with alcohol. However, just off the top of my head, legalizing drugs will reduce the Federal Budget by billions, get rid of drug dealers since they won't be able to make money off illegal drugs, free up jail space for real criminals, and allow cops to spend time going after those real criminals.
