One thing i have read in "Aint' nobody's business if you do" about why the gov't fights viciously to keep drugs illegal is that there is a huge portion of our economy based on keeping them illegal. the DEA, local law enforcement, etc, creates millions of dollars in jobs, entire agencies, etc that are dedicated to just keeping the flow of drugs down...
Now, the main problem is that marijuana barely makes a dent in the market of what these agencies normally fight against on a national level. Local law enforcement normally takes care of marijuana in most cases, sooo...
It really is hard to defend why marijuana is still illegal when alcohol/cigarettes are perfectly fine...
