81. Not only profit in simple prohibition
but also profit in the OTHER substances that replace MEDICAL marijuana. Marijuana is cheap to manufacture (it's a plant, it GROWS) compared to any of the opiates. Even opium needs some processing, marijuana needs VERY little.

So not only is there money in direct prohibition, there's also a lot of money in keeping it from becoming a replacement for drugs that are ACTUALLY manufactured.
