It would be seen as being a 'nanny state' action but I think that people should be required to have a license which would allow them to buy alcohol, marijuana and other drugs.
For most people drugs (including alcohol) don't affect them that badly and they don't become dependent on them.
Other people have huge problems with drugs and shouldn't be allowed to buy any of them or at least have strict limits on what they can buy.
Yes I know, unlikely to happen and if it did there would be more of a black market for booze (but less for marijuana), but there is something morally wrong when we allow people to drink themselves to death over a period of years.
