In my younger days, I believed this to be a good arguement for legalization, but (remember) if it was legal most everyone who wanted it would just grow it. Sure some would opt for the more processed and refined stuff, but taxing pot won't bring in near the revenue as taxing alcohol and tobacco.
For the record, I have not ever smoked, nor do I intend to do so. I had many friends who did, and I found the contact highs alone enough to be unpleasant. I also do not drink or use tobacco or any other drugs. However, I have become a libertarian over the past decade or so, so... do as you must.
EDIT: Truth in advertising statement: I will admit that I drink a lot of teas (not the sugared, flavored crap just earl grey, green and black). This will save someone who misunderstands my post from trying to enlighten me about the hipocracy of not consuming alcohol, pot etc. and drinking a caffeinated beveridge.
