The thing is, who they gonna retaliate against ? the government ? They do that and their a$$ is grass. Chances are, if they end up losing money, they will just find another black market industry that makes money to get involved with. Maybe an even worse industry than selling drugs.

Legalizing drugs is great to stop control the sale of drugs and to stop crime caused by drug wars. But unless somebody gives these guys in these areas better options to turn to then crime, they just gonna find some other criminal element to make money on eventually.
