The possible point should be that we just mature as a society and accept that drugs are a part of human life - and that altering brain chemistry can be very useful.

Then we might develop drugs which are safe to use and non-addictive, and provide real productivity gains.

Brave New World as an example.

If all drugs are developed or sold under a veil of criminality, that will never happen. We need to expose them to market forces, litigation, consumer testing and regulation.

Wait, are you using Brave New World as a positive example?
