They become legitimate businesses and continue to rake in the dough (albeit slightly less due to taxes, worth it from both a producers and consumers standpoint to keep everything safe and legal).

Will we see more harmful drugs pushed? I think weed will gain mainstream acceptance and people will forget it was ever illegal rather quickly, but there are a lot more harmful things out there to trap people.

Not sure what this has to do with legalization of one of the drugs. Anyone who wants heroin or crack or cocaine or MDMA or ecstacy or LSD or opium or fentanyl can and will find it.
Are you likely to do crack because your current liquor store now only sells crack? Or will you just go find liquor somewhere else because that's what you want?
