Its a completely ridiculous waste of government money, and marijuana should be legal. Prohibition didn't work, and the war on weed doesn't work either. Makes far more sense to concentrate on drugs that have negative effect other than making you lazy and hungry. IMO booze is far more destructive yet its legal.

Think of the economic boom that would take place if you could buy weed in any smoke shop and pay tax on it.
