The tax revenues should go towards an education program aimed at grades 8-12 about the actual negative consquences of drug use. They taught us DARE when I was in grade 6 and it was beyond useless; they tried to scare us out of it and gave details about crack cocaine production. Stupid program that was a huge failure.

They should regulate it just like alcohol and treat those who distribute to minors the same. Educate and inform, there's no need to scare people away from it. Just use logic and things will be fine.

The biggest problem is going to be children gaining access followed by people driving. The real danger is actually edibles because they can mess people up, especially children. I'd hate to see a child sick on edibles, it can last for days and could damage development significantly.
