I don’t smoke pot either. I just do not see it as a problem that is worth the money we have spent on it or the freedoms we have lost in the fight against it. Practically, the effort to end its use has been spectacularly unsuccessful. Pot is more available and more potent now than it was 30 years and billions of enforcement dollars ago. I suspect that legalizing it and selling it in licensed outlets will result in the availability to minors being reduced from what it is now.

Pretty much where I am too. Nothing is as effective at killing enterprise (illicit or otherwise) as taxation and regulation.
