Would there be gang violence against the government? Who would run the smoke clubs (would it be a private company that pays a huge tax rate, or would it be a government agency?) Would they just let the weed roam free on the streets?
While it is the right thing to do, I too worry about how it would get implemented. There is a lot of money in it currently, and I'm not sure the gangs and poor dealers are going to be happy when their client base goes to the legal stuff which has better quality control and prices.
And that comic is great. I should get a t-shirt made of it for the next time I try to cross the border.
