I think it would benefit society if we could s/alcohol/cannabis/g in the public consciousness. Vaporized flower or edibles seem ideal, because combustion creates a variety of questionable chemicals and local pollution.

A subset of the population will always be looking for some way to escape reality, but the top 2 (alcohol and tobacco) have relatively disastrous health effects.

Granted, anyone who's fine with reality as-is should be encouraged to stay the course.
