I agree and in my opinion which is just an opinion but if it was legal it would cause a lot of problems for govt and big business
pharmaceutical companies - could no longer say take a pill for everything
drug testing companies would lose out on profits as well as law enforcement as they both make tons off of smokers
Oil companies may face competition
cotton and paper companies
alcohol and tabbacco
these are just a few that I can think of but as I said before this is just my opinion

I say decrimalize and tax the hell out of it and use the tax money to pay for healthcare or education or something useful. One last thing is the fast food companies would be happy with all the munchies people would have.
