They want their hands on the MONEY, as evidenced by the defeat of the regulatory legislation in the article I linked above.

It's also the phoniness in calling it a "medical" need when it's simply a want, to get high without all the prosecutions, fines, probations and criminal court records. (I do think it should be de-criminalized....which is not the same as total legalization. I think it's absurd and crippling for twenty-somethings trying to start a career to have criminal court records following them for having been arrested for pot possession/use in college.)

Another good argument.
