The marijuana market is twice the size in US Dollars vs. the cocaine market and nearly half the volume of the overall drug trafficking. http://www.talkingdrugs

  Maybe this is a west coast perspective but I would have guessed that even before it was legal the vast majority of the marijuana market was served by domestic producers versus imports, whereas cocaine is all imported. Edit: Some googling produces estimates ranging from 30 to 70 percent imports, depending on the point the article is trying to make, so let's just call it 50% domestic nationwide.

    Adderall is way better than coke

    Totally is. I live on the East Coast in an illegal state and all weed around here is either imported from legal states or grown locally. It's not hard to find grow ops or people who will ship weed here. In a world where mass quantities of drugs are so easily available on the darknet, it seems ridiculous to think the domestic MJ market is primarily run by cartels.
