There are many different ways you can do legalisation. You can do it carefully so that people can grow it themselves, or you can make it highly commercial, restricting what individuals can do, and creating an industry that has vested interests and lobbies for laws in their favour, has misleading advertising and preys on the vulnerable. Because we missed our chance to do it the first way, we seem much more likely to end up with the second way.
