I have wondered how they are going to drug test employees when pot gets legal, DUI stops are going to be very interesting also. Driving while texting after smoking pot should get a lot of people killed.
The problem with that is there will still be a black market, dealers will just sell it cheaper than the legal stuff.

Restrictive government controls and excessive taxation is what fostered high volume illegal 'moonshine' production, 'bootlegging' and large scale thievery of legal booze meant for retail sales.
