Anyways I always considered a pro of weed was the cheapness. For about the same price of a 26ozer of booze, I could have enough weed to last a bit over a week. The bottle would likely last me only one night though :(.
I guess the negative depends on the person and their habits. I know some people who smoke about $70 of weed a day. They get bored and smoking just becomes something to do. I was like that for awhile, it's not the weed's fault.
Also the weed gave me bad heart pains for awhile whenever I smoked. It was very unpleasant and I know other people who have the same problem.

Next it would cost the dealer customers who notice that his pot is spiked with cocaine.

If a dealer laces their bud they will tell you and charge you more. ITS FUCKING ECONOMICS. Look I have a $20 bag of weed (1.5 grams), I dump in $20 worth of coke. I'm not going to sell it for $20, I'm not going to sell it for $30, I'm not going to sell it for $40, I'm going to sell it for $45 at least, most likely $50-$60, then you will ask why its so expensive and I will tell you in order to explain the outrageous price. Its called ECONOMICS, they teach it to you in school. No dealer will sell you weed laced with an "addictive" drug and not tell you. Besides adding addictive drugs to weed in order to keep a customer coming back is retarded. Weed dealers are as common as pennies in parking lots.
