Six years after California legalized marijuana, the bodies keep piling up. Drug legalization has failed on every level. The legal drug business is collapsing. Cartels and gang members dominate the business. And open borders allowed them to bring massive numbers of laborers to boost their ranks.

After impossible levels of taxes and regulations, all that was needed was thousands of illegals to become cartel workers on the marijuana farms. Farmers attempting to comply are going bankrupt.

You can legally grow your own now, but we're a "food and produce comes from stores" population now. You'd have to be trying to screw it up this badly.

Pre-legalization the California market used to be $14 billion. Now they're saying it's $44 billion?
