Yeah actually is helpful to know what some of our guys think, thanks. I figured the families would want all of that stuff flowing freely, but hadn't considered who WOULD want to finally bring real drug reform (let alone gambling or prostitution restrictions) to NV.

If we can make Addictol free or as close to it as possible, I do think that will mitigate problems caused by a lot of drug use. But I have concerns about gambling and sex addiction, which can't be treated the same way, and can be just as much of a slope to worse crime. My initial pitch on having this stuff be decriminalized revolved around an abundance of clinics because we should just have as holistic and approach as possible to treating people that aren't able to manage their substance use, or game playing, or hooker fucking. Even still, my point about their being harsh punishments on crimes while having lots of gateways to addiction hasn't really been refuted. With a robust clinic system we can minimize that problem as much as possible, but it's kinda fucked that we are making a society where people are welcomed to our paradise of indulgence and partying, but people that party too hard or lose their heads are dealt with so severely, yaknow? I am not gonna keep debating it though, I wanted others to consider that angle as we move towards commitments on these parts of the law, they will or won't, and maybe I am thinking too much into it.

I just don't think you have very capable reading comprehension skills, anon. How am I proposing a 'nanny state' when I lead this discussion calling for all of these vices to be totally unregulated and decriminalized? When did I say anything about personal agency one way or another? I said that if we make it easy to become addicted, we will have to reckon with the behavior of addicts. Even if plenty of them don't break the law, very, very many of them do, and often violently. I'm not saying that because I want to inject my baggage into this game, I am saying that because it's a recurring feature in the Fallout series, something the courier dealt with multiple times in FNV and we are in the process of dealing with at a massive scale in this game right now. Keep your weird direction-brained grumbling to yourself. If anons are going to write long schpiels about blast furnaces and tax rates to make sure we don't fuck those things up, there's room to talk about the implications of legal drugs and betting, which I'm sure we don't want to fuck up either.
