1. He shoulda said that, and

2. You legalize weed and people will just grow their own. taxes will be decent but everyone will just fill their yard with it.

I think he's suggesting you tax it at an exorbitant rate.

Just as black-market cigarettes are cheaper than the legitimate ones.

exactly, but theres no money in a cigarette black market,, there is for drugs

legalize them and stop wasting money, time, and manpower attempting to stop something that people don't want stopped...it's like prohibition all over again..make it legal and the crime with it stops.

alcohol/cigarettes- theres really no need for a black market. the guy in his house brewing some beer isnt going to produce enough to make an effect.. people wont grow tobacco to make their own cigarettes. the government has controll of these products so they can tax and regulate them. drugs are a different story

The government can do the same with marijuana. If marijuana is grown out, regulated and sold, then people wont see the need to grow it anymore and whatever blackmarket will cease. It's the same with tobacco. The tobacco blackmarket is pretty small and most people don't bother with bootleg, untaxed cigarettes.

Actually there IS $s in Ciggs Black Market- The Tax is so high!
If any product is sold @ true market prices- THere will not be unusual crime over it!
When is the last time a liquor store owner laid a drive by on a competitor?Huh?
Irrational pricing drives the Black market, and crime.

Marijuana isn't a drug, but a plant and THC is the drug.  :D
