The profit motive will be greatly diminished for street pushers. They've lost their 21-and-over market. And, if the tax proposal goes through, the pricing will be such that to buy it retail and resell it, the end price will be higher than it was. So, maybe it will actually be tougher for kids to buy. Certainly, it won't be any easier, since, in the past, any kid I know would be able to score some anytime they wanted.

And, further, with the presence of the street pusher diminished, the availability of other drugs is reduced. To me, that's always been the reason why pot looked like a gateway...one stop shopping.
