The only reason why I feel that there would be more enforcement would be due to the fact that marijuana for example would now be seen in the same limelight as booze.

Your right about the underground booze industry, but its still considered illegal to sell homemade wine, and I figure that if non storebought grass started showing up, the police would be obligated to come down extremely heavy on the perpetrator.

But back to the original point, the minute that you legalize dope and sell it out of a liquor store, your forced to enforce the rules with very little leeway on how its done and why its done. As oppossed to an illegal drug where you might not have the resources to go after the small guy very hard, because you want to focus on the dealers and the heavy users and distributors.

Cops would be forced to investigate people who's car smells like dope, or who has a spliff in the ashtray, just like they have to investigate a car that smells like beer or has open containers on the floor.

I just think the enforcement of a legalized drug (and don't misunderstand me, I'm not crazy about the idea of legalizing another controlled substance) would in the end be more costly and difficult that going after an illegal drug

Again just my 2 cents
