I do wonder how and why we're supposed to get people into treatment if drugs aren't illegal- "Hi citizen I noticed you're enjoying a legal activity with deleterious long term effects. Please take this pamphlet with a list of treatment centers and voluntarily enroll." It's worked so well with tobacco and alcohol.

It has worked out with tobacco, quite well.

Alcohol problems have seemed to take a downward trend in recent decades as well. Although it looks like pregnant women are drinking more!
