Legalizing Drugs

So, as Jonathon asked...

Why are drugs good for the economy?

What would happen if they were legalized?

This is actually a good micro question, and I'm pretty sure I have a reading on it for later in the unit. Think through the S & D of it - if drugs were legalized, what would happen to the price and why?

Or anything else that Jon thought would be good to discuss. :)

Why would suppliers be upset if drugs were legalized?

Alyssa, you rock. There are more suppliers protesting the legalization of drugs than people who want to use them. Crazy, hey?

Probably one reason why it won't happen. Not that suppliers step forward and say that, but hey...people are killed for much less than someone trying to sell drugs in someone else's territory...
