pros for government: taxation.

No joke...if u do the right research, 3-4 pages simply on that.

Compare with prohibition and of the sorts.

Seany is right. This is really easy paper, especially since you have the knowledge already.

You can write one half about the cons (addiction etc) and another about the taxation benefits. You can also argue that addiction occurs in many areas (e.g. smoking, drinking, video games) yet those are not prohibited. That way the "addiction" argument loses weight and the paper is more in favor of taxation / legalisation.

I know I saw this thread too late, but if you haven't heard about this group from Harvard...well, then you haven't heard of this group from Harvard. Really interesting stuff.
