Kind of like home brew, one can make a certain amount for personal use, but not for commercial purposes.

If I remember correctly, that may be another part of the legalization debate. Thiat is, would it be sold commercially OTC or would pharmaceutical companies sell it for the medicinal purposes? Then I think one would have to consider how to tax it if one of those angles were to be selected. That is partially why the gov't won't do weed the same way they did cigarettes and alchohol because of the medicinal properties attributed to it. They realize that there is money to be made in it, but how?
