Legalization doesn't just help people who smoke pot--it helps ALL of us, by reducing prison time and incarcerations, especially sentences due to simple marijuana possession.

EDIT: More facts via http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,2109777,00....

"Drug convictions went from 15 inmates per 100,000 adults in 1980 to 148 in 1996, an almost tenfold increase. More than half of America's federal inmates today are in prison on drug convictions. In 2009 alone, 1.66 million Americans were arrested on drug charges, more than were arrested on assault or larceny charges. And 4 of 5 of those arrests were simply for possession."

Seems balancing the budget is a simple matter of legalizing drugs. Attacks the spend side through fewer prosecutions and incarcerations. Use the money from drug taxes to pay for treatment programs and attacking the revenue side of the budget deficit.

Are there really that many people in the country that are upright about drugs? I've never done a drug in my life but I certainly don't care if others do in a manner similar to alcohol.

Don't be so sure about balancing the budget on the back of drug users: http://money.cnn.com/2013/05/10/smallbusiness/marijuana-taxe...

I've always thought that the tax argument was less than stellar. Are we really wanting to convince government that it should legalize drugs because of the money it could make, rather than having a society with more freedom? Is the purpose of a government to make money?
