It would see a huge drop in tourists. I know it's still a fantastic city, really awesome, but without the coffee shops it looses it's one big appeal and has to compete with other cities like Prague, Dublin, Berlin etc as being really overpriced tourist hotspots.

Whatever happens in Dutchland the rest of the world is moving the other way anyway. The Netherlands is only famous because of the coffee shops. The laws in places like Spain, Portugal and the Czech Republic are far more liberal. It's actually properly decriminalized in those countries.

Every drug is decriminalized for personal posession in the Czech Republic, right down to the amounts. It's actually written into the law that you can carry up to five individual sheets of acid. Crazy stuff.
