The government would make way more money taxing reefer. First of all most avid smokers will spend anywhere from $100-$250+ a week on reefer which means about $20 roughly weekly in tax on average from every smoker.
The amount of morons who get caught with reefer is only a fraction of the people out there smoking it. Even when you get caught most courts will give you a small fine and let you walk as long as you're not hustling hard. Plus most potheads who get caught don't pay for a lawyer and just use duty council which is free so no money made there.
Then if they do send the pothead to jail who do you think pays for that the guy sitting in the cell?
There is no way you make more money off keeping pot illegal unless I'm missing something here.
