Well, it's certainly a contender. Up there with QC and recruitment manager in a brothel. And... umm, I can't think of many others as attractive.
Interesting factoid in the article that the US market for dope is given as $18 billion/year. That's about $60pppy. which isn't too bad.
So, the big question: has taking this group of users of previously illegal drugs out of the illegal drug market and into the legal pharmaceutical market had any noticeable effect on the illegal (unlicensed/ untaxed) dope market? And does this tell us anything about the oft-made claims that dope is a "gateway" drug, which leads people into contact with (and by implication, use of) other illegal drugs?
Did I get another first post? WGAF?
