I feel too many people in high places are enjoying huge benefits from the criminal crime syndicate and that is why seemingly simple common sense won't prevail. Drug cartels are making billions of dollars. I'm sure we have enough intelligent people who could make it legally controlled and we could all benefit with lower taxes.
