Incorrect. Legalization and regulation would destabilize the black market and undermine the pressure it places on prices. Would cannabis be taxed heavily? You bet. However, the elimination of the embedded expense related to prohibition would neutralize any taxes due to regulation. Compared to now, weed would be vastly less expensive.
