And then there's the cost of enforcement.


One of the most commonly cited arguments for legalizing marijuana – besides non-addictive pain management and enormous tax revenue for states' economies – is the ridiculous amount of money spent by the government to enforce prohibition.


Marijuana prohibition costs upward of $20 billion a year, according to a report by The Huffington Post. That's far too high a price to pay to prohibit a drug that is legally accessible to more than one out of every five Americans – and California is through overspending.


Makes sense to me.
