I would be cheaper to not allow pot and fine the ones who use it...so their fines could go towards the needs of the good people of the state.

Maybe, a little common sense is creeping in. Unemployment 'benefits' may become contingent on passing a drug test.

Aside from many other good reasons, pot is either illegal or state legalized largely for 'recreational' purposes. Why should a social safety net pay for any recreational expense, other than to back social engineering with funding.
