My point is... Drugs may as well be legalized. Why? Because what would it change? Similar studies (re: Decriminalization of sex work) has shown a clear decrease in activity, activity-related illness and violence. Not saying sex work = drugs, but it is very similar.

Problem is, the illegal sale of THC goes up because of it being a far cheaper alternative to the heavy taxes of a legal purchase.

That's not even true lol. Look at Washington, Colorado & Oregon. Illegal sale went down a whole lot, while the legal dispensaries flourished.

Link please? Because I see no reason that illegal sales would not go up.

It was decriminalized (mostly) in 2010 to a misdemeanor, and the statistics on that page only count arrested people so I'm not surprised that a huge decrease came with it. That page didn't help anyone here. Got anything else?
