But really now. Okay, so prices would probably go down for street dealers if legalized, because the demand would drop ever so slightly, because the supply would probably increase. Due to the risk factors being eliminated and such, with all that comes with legalization and regulating an industry.

Look at the big picture. It would be an entirely new INDUSTRY. Think About It. What does that actually mean for you and me? It Means Brand New Job Opportunities To Work In A Field That I'm Sure Everyone Here Is Very Passionate About. Not Only Would There Be Facilities Dedicated To Medicinal Cannabis Production, But Also For Recreational Use Cannabis As Well. Not to mention all the labs in the US kicking into high gear to really break down the science of cannabis and all of its contained natural chemicals, to see what affects what, and to attain desired effects. The production of hemp would return. There'd need to be facilities to process that into the various goods. Along with everything else that comes with it, that I would love to get into once again, but I still havent slept tonight.

Basically, all those constructions need workers to build them. And after they are built, they need people to maintain them. What this means for everyone is more jobs, and better job security, atleast in terms of more places to find jobs. Think about how many types of positions would open up.

Educated, business savvy people would hop into the market themselves, the legal, regulated way. And of course there will still be the street vendors that sell their exceptional crop to his or her closest family and friends. Really, it's a whole lot of good to go around. But it all takes a whole lot of work and dedication.
