As far as the cartels and dealers - legalizing many and pushing better education and prevention of use would be safer and reduce violence. The cartels (all, not just the ones South of the border) would resist (Note, a number of this year's California wild fires were arson and at least two wiped out millions of dollars in uninsured pot).
