Legalization of Marijuana

I have an economist friend that isn't huge fan of Dr. Goss.  But, I'll put that aside since I frankly can't break down his models any better than your average junior high school student.  He took a look at marijuana legalization and noted large economic growth and a corresponding increase in crime.  I'd like to note that both of these cross over political interests of mine, namely loosening of American restrictions on contraband and an end to the American police state.  You can follow the link to Goss's blog below.
