I'm not a fan of weed, but the cost of trying to keep it off the street is just far too much for it to be worth. It being legalized could save 10s of billions of dollars every year.

In fact, it could do the exact opposite, as it's clearly started doing in Washington and Colorado. The potential tax windfall could fund education and prevention programs if it's legalized countrywide. I can appreciate your view, and I basically look at it the same way I do cigarettes or alcohol. Neither are particularly useful to society but trying to ban them is a fools errand, and far more expensive in just about every way.
