Guess we better legalize anything that can be profitable when illegal. Lets start with murder. Hitmen make money now, lets take that away.
Your comparison is laughable.
If you add up all the money made by hit men, you would have
to multiply it by a BILLION to come up with the amount of
money made by criminal gangs in US & Mexico & S.A.
But then you need a good sense of proportion to be successful in economic life.
