Legalization works, and is already directing tax revenues into all sorts of public services in CO, WA, OR, AK and soon NV, CA, MA and ME.

Unfortunately, Chris Christie is an asshole. (He's also, perhaps not coincidentally, the least popular governor in the united states, in ANY state, in the last 20 years) Good news is, if the next Governor of NJ is Democrat, the state has a fair chance of legalizing.
