There are legal substances that are either harmful or addictive, but never both in such a severity. I don't think the government should play a huge role in the morals and ethics of people, but when it comes to the physical wellbeing of communities (remember: addiction means that drugs spread easily in communities), I support government in the banning of drugs.
