The issue is that there is not always a physical element to addiction. You can become addicted to anything that gives you a positive dopamine boost. It’s why porn and food can become addictive to people.
I get what you’re going for here but almost anything can be considered a “drug” if we are just using addictive and bad for you as the qualifiers. Even drinking too much water can kill you.
Yeah, but we already have laws against specific drugs so this wouldn’t be any worse than what we already have, instead it’s an approach to make it safer without just saying it’s okay. But yeah the decision of if it should be a controlled substance should be left up to a board of medical professionals rather than politicians as it is now.
