What would happen to the USA if we ended prohibition right now?

If drug use were completely legal It would have a massive effect on the global economy. Money that once was going to drug lords(both bad and if there are any good) will make its way to farmers (worldwide), the US government, US economy and global economy. Certain areas would see a massive financial boom as the illegal drug trade money gets moved into the hands of the working class economy. I would assume drug use would decrease among youth as it does where there is no age limit on drinking(there is less alcoholism for all ages in these areas). Less people would die because drugs would have guidelines. The US for profit prison industry would take a huge hit. Prisons in general would have a much smaller population. Gang violence would drop quite a bit as there is no territory to have to sell product. I think other petty crimes such as robbery and home invasion would rise as criminals look for a way for fast cash. Police and other law agencies would have a massive amount of more resources at their disposal. IMO the trade off is somewhere around 85% positive 15%negative effect if this happened.
