Okay, soap box time!

U.S. alcohol deaths per annum (traffic related NOT included) = 110,000.

U.S. marijuana deaths per annum = 0.

Deaths attributed to marijuana are crime related (Irie's lead poisoning) or confounded by cigarette smoking. This is older info from the World Health Organization.

If we federally control and tax it, most likely the cost will go down, just like the dollar, housing, etc.
