I think they will do something similar to Colorado, a sales tax, toke/weed tax, possibly even recreation tax to make it cheaper for legit medical patients. The government could use the extra tax from the recreational smokers to subsidize and offset the cost for the medical patients. 10% sales tax only = $300M a year, add a 10% weed tax and it goes up to $600M a year, add a recreational tax of say 8-10% and you're now generating somewhere around 800-900Mil a year with growth of nearly 25% in the following year. It's more closer to a 1 - 1.5 Billion dollar a year industry. On top of that, because of our space, you we could set up international trade agreements to allow our people to grow for places like colarado, uruguay, etc, bringing in even more money in exports. They have to go full recreational otherwise they'll never be able to stamp out the black market, and in turn will still be wasting police time and our money chasing the 'illegal' pot growers. Who wants to bet the bet the turncoat government brings this to policy out if they start tanking in the elections. Big money in the weed game is knocking on our greedy corrupt politicians doors.
