Technically the US won't be able to completely heal from the recession by legalizing marijuana. But studies have shown that if legalized and taxed at a price around $50/ounce, that the US would receive 16 billion in revenues a year which would definitely help in our economy. In California, where medical marijuana is legal, there is a bill in office trying to legalize the use of cannabis with similar laws to alcohol. Because marijuana is California's #1 cash crop, there would be a 1 billion dollar a year of extra taxes just if California legalized cannabis.
