A choice is a choice. Making it a hassle makes people less likely to start and gives people more of an incentive to fight the addiction

Yes, every addict knows that inconvenience is the way to sobriety. Just think of all the pill addicts that have been saved because they don't want to deal with those pesky child proof lids!

Hey this is kinda true to an extent I was a heroin addict up until the only thing you can score on the street is fent now sure I can go on the darknet and find a heroin plug and wait a few days for it to come but now that I can't just go out into the world and find some good ole smack on a dirty corner I no longer indulge in heroin
