The problem with that line of thinking is: they ARE highly available. And after 40 plus years of Nixon's "War On Drugs" the result is that there are MORE drugs than ever before.
Best to find a "cure" for addiction. There are already several medical and scientific groups that worked on this and have found that using hallucinogens in a controlled medical facility for a few sessions can "reboot" the brain.
They are "curing" alcoholism, depression, PTSD, opiod addiction, etc.
Looking past addiction to recreational drug use: People have been getting high since the first caveman licked a poisonous frog and started tripping.
It's natural to us. Work hard all week, then blow off some steam on the weekend.
The govt. tried to pull this shit with alcohol. And the results spoke for themselves.
The same thing is happening now with drugs.
Hell, alcohol has more people addicted and kills more people every year than drugs ever will. Same with nicotine.
