If pot were legal...then guess what? Less cops would be needed. Less prisons. Less judges. Less courthouses.

It's in the interest of the law enforcement community to keep it illegal. :(

They'd still have plenty of other shit to clean up.

Unless you're caught traffic HUGE quantities, you get a slap on the wrist...if anything. This is in New York at least, were for the most part personal possession of marijuana has been decriminalized.

There's also the issue of multiplying the benefits of the freed up resources. Resources allocated in an economy have multiplier effects. Some are more efficient than others.
