From the wording of that post, I take it you believe everyone who is going to smoke, is already smoking. I wouldn't be at all sure of that.

Nevertheless, I'm still in favor of legalization. Would this trump company policies on drug tests, or does federal law supersede?

Everyone? No, but there are already a huge number of new smokers all the time, and the rules of civility seem to be holding.

Here's the language that addresses that:

I don't know how this intertwines with federal employment laws, especially for industries regulated primarily at the federal level, but my reading is that the intent is you can't be fired for getting high unless they can show it was directly impacting job performance.
