Of course, on the flip side, look at the mess people get themselves into with the gambling that IS legal (stock market, housing market, etc.).

I have to admit, I'm a big fan of Darwinism type politics. I don't really believe in saving the weak from themselves, and think that prostitution, marijuana, gambling, and a host of other currently-illegal things (that I have no personal interest in participating) should be legalized...
Wow!!!

All that extra legal activity will require some serious disposable income. Hope you include bank robbery in your list of excused illegal activity.
