Unpopular opinion, but I think this is a great idea for alcohol and cigarettes, especially in areas with high rates of alcoholism.

That is in fact why alcohol is insanely expensive in Norway. Because they have historically had high rates of alcoholism and want to combat that.

		Long ago there was a law that every farm in Norway had to produce beer, because the king could potentially visit. It’s said coffee was introduced to try to reduce the alcohol consumption, but Norwegians kept consuming alcohol like before and staring to drink large amount of coffee also.
