or that "criminals" will magically just stop being criminals, or that people will stop murdering, raping, robbing other people, etc) but those "expectations" don't seem to ever happen. Criminals will be criminals regardless. Why make the going for them easier than necessary? Drug dealing is one of the easiest ways to make great sums of money quickly which is exactly what criminals want. When the ability to make that quick money is removed there will be a shift but the important part is that those other forms of crime are just has high risk with less of a reward.
