I think the answer to this question is one of the most major points of contention between pro-legalization and anti-legalization supporters. For people who support the legalization of marijuana, there's a belief that because marijuana is illegal right now, more people smuggle it and use it quietly. If, however, the drug is made legal, they argue that the number of drug users will not increase. Rather, they will be more transparent and available to treat in rehab. For those who are against marijuana's legalization, the belief is held that marijuana use and addiction will skyrocket in the global community if it's made legal. Frankly, the effects on the global community, should marijuana be legalized, are a source of debate right now.
