"Legal domestic production would mean zero profit for thugs around the globe."

Not entirely. What about the countries where drugs are still illegal? What about the teenage drug user market? What about really bad drugs, like PCP?

Unless you made all drugs legal for all people, there'd be some sort of market for illegal drugs.
