Brilliant! The income from the pot can pay for the increased number of teachers needed to school the under-achieving teenagers now turned pothead, and pay for their medical bills when they get a long-disease.
Um, it would still be illegal for teenagers, who currently prepare themselves for lung diseased futures by smoking cigarettes illegally and other medical bills by drinking illegally.

Legalizing the devil weed would remove a major money source from criminal gangs and be a major new source of tax revenues.

If you really believe your hype why aren't you advocating the criminalization of alcohol and tobacco?
