Aside from the fact that it most definately would not, it's amazing that you think this is a good thing.

First of all I was providing that example as a bad effect of marijuana legalization. Secondly do you honestly think that if people could cheaply and legally grow something in their backyard that would replace so many of the drugs they pay exorbitant fees for at the pharmacy that they would still choose the pharmacy? Pain-relief, nausea, loss of appetite, depression, insomnia, etc. these are illnesses that marijuana can be used to treat. Many of these are where pharmaceutical companies make their bread and butter. If you don't think drug corporations are behind the continuing prohibition of marijuana you're ill-informed and naieve.
