Your misinformation and incorrect conclusions about the black market have already been addressed.
But as a resident of Colorado I can only guess where you get your tax information from. Where ever it is, you should disconnect yourself from the source because it is simply flay wrong.
Anyone who states there have been no tax gains in the states that have legalized doesn't live on this planet.
not to mention that tax gains are just a small part of it. Commercial real estate in CO has been booming and some of that is directly related to marijuana for retail stores and warehouses. Not exclusively, of course, because the economy as a whole is doing well here, and legal marijuana is a part of our economy.
All great points. Pot legalization has done nothing to reduce gangs and cartel crimes. In fact, illegal drug use over all substances has done nothing but increase since pot laws were relaxed.
There are still plenty of drugs for gangs and cartels to market in, meth, cocaine, heroin and plenty of activities like prostitution for them to profit from.
