The legalization of marijuana has brought in millions (maybe billions?) in tax revenue to those states that have allowed it. Just imagine what each state and even the federal government could do with such extra money. Rather than wasting millions in tax money on a fight that can't be won ,right??
Or maybe you guys got another opinions??
War has never been meaningless for governments because they know this is the best way to become more prominent and have a say in the world. In particular, the war would be a gold mine because the government could sell weapons for a fight at a high price.
I could not agree more with you. The war on drugs is a business, some people are profiting a lot with it, and that's only the major reason that we won't see legalization in some places at least for a long time.
