That's a relocation, not an absolute increase. People who have been responsible enough to avoid drug use because it was illegal will continue to be responsible and not let legal drug use drive them out of employment or onto welfare rolls.

This is a statement that deliberately ignores the effect of legitimacy on human nature. The law is a normalizing force. If the law declares something wrong, it dissuades a significant portion of the people from doing it.

This statement also flies in the face of History. When drugs are legalized, drug usage increases following a logistical growth pattern. Like this one:

If the law declares something wrong, it dissuades a significant portion of the people from doing it.

Have any evidence for this claim? Seems to me that many legal things are rarely done.

Drugged sheeple are complacent, lethargic, and too tied to fight back. Soros and his mini-Me know this.
