Marijuana should NOT be legalized. Aside from the 'mexican drug cartel' side. Marijuana is a THRIVING industry that needs no government oversight. Why cant there be an industry that has no hands of the government meddling all the time? I can tell you everyone in the loop is happy when it comes to the marijuana industry.
The growers - they are happy or they wouldnt be producing literal TONS of crops every year
Middlemen/sellers - they are happy, there is a decent mark-up opportunity for them to make money quickly and effectivel
end user/smoker - when have you ever met an ornery stoner? didnt think so
so everyone in that cycle is happy and functions well, it doesnt need to be legalized as far as taxation and government oversight, it actually just needs decriminalized and that should do the trick.
California didnt legalize it just because of what i wrote, the serious growers and sellers never voted because of what I just explained, plus its more of a boost to the local economy without money disappearing into the government black hole
