Answer 1

Answer 2

The Federal Government because of the allotted money for the "War on Drugs". This would trickle down to the States as well, who rely on the Fed money so that they can keep hiring police, hiring prison guards and don't forget the almighty govt contractors who build the prisons that keep the population of 77% non-violent drug offenders locked away. There simply is more money in keeping it illegal than legal. That said, I'm firing up a blunt right now.

Answer 3

Your question doesn't even make sense. But I think you're trying to ask who will lose the most if pot is legalized? The answer is the dealer. There will no longer be a need for him.

And to Zelda, trust me, if it's legalized the gov. WILL tax it. Don't be ridiculous.

Answer 4

Budweiser

Go look at how much they pay to lobbyists to keep it illegal.

Answer 5

The government - they haven't found a way to tax it yet.
