capitalism
"illegal" is overrated, anyway. Trump did a ton of illegal stuff and yet, here we are.
Ridiculous rental prices and annual rent increases with no improvements to show for it.
Guns
They shouldn't be illegal, but heavily regulated.
I mean, hunting and harvesting meat is far more ethical to the normal meat industry.
Cigarettes
Yes.... let's create another prohibition era item... it's a vice.
Possibly controversial but prostitution. Allows for regulation and workplace safety. Would probably calm a lot of men down as well and help them focus on the more important aspects of getting into a relationship.
Edit: misread the title and thought it said "legal".
