the money they'd save into getting the drug laws changed?

There would be no "drug war" or drug trade if the users weren't buying.

Recreation drug use is not a human rights issue. There's something questionable about getting outraged over the money wasted on combating pot use and the injustice of lumping pot smokers in with violent offenders, but still continuing to support that "industry." I don't think you can have it both ways.
