sorry buddy but this is 100% wrong if you are referring to the United States.
medical marijuana dispensaries pay their taxes, if marijuana was to be legalized it would be sold in dispensaries and would in fact pay taxes so that is not the real reason.

this is very much a part of the reason for marijuana being illegal.
also not to mention the united states government has to justify their reason for starting the DEA with this ongoing war on drugs which is funded like billions and billions of dollars per year if marijuana was legal most of this spending would not be "justified" lol, also there is many many people in jail because of marijuana and to make it legal they would have to do something about all these "political" prisoners.
fuck it I'm stoned... so what!!
