Selling drugs is a fundamentally illegitimate business; its about convincing first-time customers to drive themselves mad so they are incapable of making a rational judgement whether to be repeat customers. It is also an existential threat to the government if you allow those self-made madmen to vote for whatever left-wing demagogue tells them what they want to hear. Just sitting there and watching as the worst sort of grifters take a sledgehammer to the foundations of your civilisation is not an option.
gov doesn't really have the legitimacy to ban these things in the first place.
