Interesting, yes? Legalizing marijuana thins out the importers. And certainly increases some legal entrepreneurial activity here.

Delaware should legalize marijuana, like Colorado and Washington did. Tax it like crazy and be the centerpiece of a Mid-Atlantic market. Get in *early* and start replacing the revenues at risk from casinos that are being out-competed.
