> I know of approximately 0 people who have had the thought “I’d try heroin if it were legal”.

Perhaps it's because they weren't experiencing enough pain at the time. I think most people fall into drugs circumstantially, I'm not sure it often presents as a conscious lifestyle decision.

> I truly believe that there would be fewer addicts and fewer overdoses if you could buy regulated heroin.

I believe that there would be less drug use overall if our economic system wasn't as rapacious as it currently is.
