Effects of Legalizing Cannabis:

Legalization has a number of broad ramifications, including as better access to safe and regulated goods for both medical and recreational users, less strain on the legal and law enforcement systems, and the emergence of a new legal sector that creates jobs and tax income. Additionally, it promotes scientific research into cannabis-based cures, improves product quality and customer safety through regulations and testing, and reduces illicit commerce by rerouting demand to regulated marketplaces. Legalization raises significant public health and regulatory issues while also having the social potential to lessen stigma and encourage responsible, educated usage.
