If street drugs were ever de-criminalized in America, the production and marketing of would be done by Big Pharma, as has already started to happen with prescription drugs, the largest-growing segment of recreational drug use in America btw.
In a way that would be a good thing as the product would be safer, cleaner, taxed and de-stigmatized. But how many people want to give so much power over to multi-national companies with such a product? And are people comfortable allowing the legalization of a product that creates severe mental illnesses at such an alarming rate.
