25. The mob dropped pot for higher margin products.
I don't think the drug lords would lose that much if Pot was legalized. It would be a new cash crop, especially in the southern states. Some states could grow it for the fiber and oils.

I don't think it would make much difference in the use of the harder drugs. Some junkies I knew didn't even smoke weed. It just wasn't their thing. Everybody has their drug, be it caffeine (my favorite), alcohol, or cocaine.
