Anyone who wants to do drugs now does it, the fact that it is illegal is not a deterrent.
As for the economy and jobs. What happened back during prohibition when booze was finally legalized? New economies sprung up. Selling it legally would be a profitable business. I doubt the economic benefits would be negative. I must look for some articles I have read in the financial and economic areas regarding this very topic.

The Great Depression happened and crime got organized to bring in the booze.
