If the illegal drug trade was legalized, GDP could potentially increase as the production and sale of drugs would be included in official economic activities. Legalization could also lead to taxation of the industry, creating a new revenue stream for the government. Additionally, there could be savings in law enforcement and judicial costs associated with prosecuting illegal drug activities.

Will the legalization of Marijuana hurt the drug cartels?

absolutely. if what they're selling is no longer illegal, they can't charge whatever they want for it. if marijuana was legalized than the drug cartels would most likely crash and burn, unless they switch to relying more heavily on different drugs. once pot is legalized than the governments will regulate it and will make the profit off it, not illegal dealers.
