Wait a minute... "made lawmakers happy" was said. Let's delve into this "problem" of addictive behavior and think about root-cause-problems. - people are unhappy in their lives and fall into addiction * they have too many opportunities for abuse * there's something really wrong in their lives that needs solving - lawmakers fail to make laws that reduce addiction * lawmakers are persuaded by lobbyists that act for profit, because the latter have good arguments or the former are easy to convince/bribe * they don't understand addiction because they are ill positioned for that job Above can be broken down further into core problems, that should be tackled. My point being, it's not necessarily a bad example.
