Ending prohibition enforcement would save $7.7 billion in combined state and federal spending, the report says, while taxation would yield up to $6.2 billion a year.Nearly a $14 billion swing. Wow! I'm sure some politicos will stand up and take notice of this.

I have to put up with small MJ possession cases every day. Eliminating them from my caseload would let me focus more on OWIs, batteries, and thefts. I do wonder, however, if legalization would materially increase the number of those who drive while stoned.
