I like this.I'd go so far as to even suggest modifying existing drugs so that the dosage is far more mild and safe for recreational use. Not saying we should do this for heroin, but there are other opiates quite similar like morphine or oxy that come with serious side effects, yet are legal in a limited form. I think that limitation is key. If we can change the lethality and addictiveness, but still sell a drug that gives a bit of that wanted feeling without nearly as much risk of overdose/addiction, people'd probably go for it.

Part of the risk there which was highlighted on the past Guild by people is that if you offer safer versions, then people can just make "Super Drugs" with the extra kick people want and sell those in the illegal market.

To be fair though, even if that happened, use of illegal drugs should still be lower since there is at least a version of it that's legal so a number of people will just stick with that.
