uhhhhh wow, what a terrible argument by the OP.  In depth!?!?  You are a 13 year old scrub.

Legalized weed would create tons of revenue for the government.  And more importantly, this isn't about the government.  Who gives a laughing turd!.  The reason it should be legalized has nothing to do with taxes.  It should be legal because there is no reason for it to be illegal.  We are free men.  The drug has no major health risks.

Of course drunk driving laws will be applied.  They already are!  I'll tell you what, 99% of any DUI accidents I hear about are caued by alcohol, not weed.

Of course minors won't be able to buy it.

Of course you will not be able to smoke in public.  It will be just like alcohol.  You can not walk around and drink liquor (except in select counties). 

Basically, alcohol laws will apply to weed.

Weed will be sold at the supermarket, it will be sold and liquor stores, everywhere you can find alcohol.  "Camel Marijuana Cigarettes"
You will be able to buy pure joints, blended joints (weed and tobacco), edibles, etc etc, and it will be regulated by the FDA!   


You can GROW your own.  Just like you can GROW an apple tree.  Weed cultivation is NOT dangerous like alcohol production, hence no laws against it are neccessary. 

You have forgotten the biggest benefit of legalization!  It saves the government all the money it WASTES on the court and prison system that locks up small-time offenders!

Benefits:

1.  Destruction of the Mexican drug cartels
2.  Decrease in government legal and prison costs
3.  Increased tax revenue
4.  Health regulations on the product
5.  New industry brings a ton of new jobs (cultivation, administrative, sales, marketing, retail, infrastructure, etc etc)
6.  Small business growth

Sorry kiddo, the benefits absolutely, without a doubt, outweigh the cons.  Take your morals and old-man fears and shove em.  Your fear of a stoned guy walking on the street should not impact the rights of the entire country.

Laws will protect people from weed related crimes.  Offenders will be prosecuted, just like with alcohol.  A drunk is MUCH more volatile than a stoner.

Marijuana has every practical / logical reason to be legalized.

------------

If anything, the federal government should give power to the states to decide, who will then give counties / citys the ability to create ordinances that represent their population's wishes.
