I am slowly retreating from this school of thought seeing how ineffective states and provinces in the US and Canada have done with decriminalizing cannabis, resulting in an arguably more thriving black market that differs than the one pre-legalization. Call me pessimistic but I think as we decriminalize other drugs their black markets will mutate in a similar way. In addition I am curious on your opinion and that of others on if a line should be draw and what characteristics that line is to be drawn on.

If they can't compete with the legal option, or, if the legal option has too many requirements, there will be black market. This apply to any business.

  This^ apart from your accidental misspelling: "If they can't compete with the legal option..." Competing with the legal option is why black markets exist. Not being able to compete ensures their eventual demise.
