Personally? I say legalize it and since it's for consumption it should be regulated and taxed like alcohol and tobacco... Having said that I don't like the way alcohol and tobacco are taxed, but IMO marijuana would/should probably fall in that category (as opposed to food). We're wasting a lot of time and money on a drug war that we'll never win. Legalize it, and tax it. I'd be curious to see if it would help with budget problems. I don't know if it would or not.
