Quote:How?
What I meant was that dealers deal drugs in the first place because it's an easy way to make money. They came to the decision on their own that make money illegally is better than making money legitimatly. If drugs are out of the equation, they find ways to make easy money in other ways, whether it be stealing, switching to drugs not legalized, etc.
Quote:Competition is good for the consumer. It makes things better and cheaper too.
It's not making cigarette any cheaper, but I do agree that the more competition, the better the market. There's alot of areas that local and state governments cover that would be better suited to free market and competition, such as health care, sanitation, education.
