Illegal pot will still flourish

Dear Editor:

An interesting side thought. Has anybody given any thought as to how hard the "illegal drug dealers" are laughing?

I am sure they will continue to deal in their products, not worrying about the legal competition. After all, they will continue to grow and sell their products for $5-$10 less than the competition due to the "alley" dealers not paying any taxes, insurance, or any other related overhead costs. There will be minimal tax revenue for the schools until the legitimate business dealers go broke. The pot heads will still have their goodies. Thank you, Colorado voters!

Black marketers in any activity have yet to comply with all the laws that legitimate business has to comply with.
