Default Re: Economy Fix or Fail??

Ooh Korny, just as another scaling down of your figures, the same Miron study that you quoted earlier as saying that 30 billion dollars would be generated in government revenue was under the assumption that ALL drugs would be completely decriminalized and legalized for sale and use in the US.

Of the 30 billion, only 6.7 would actually be from marijuana. Again, 6.7 billion dollars is still a lot of money, but it's only 22% of the figures you quoted earlier.
