Caffeine must be one of, if not the, most used drug. It is vital to the operation of more or less every industry.
I think once upon a time alcohol was illegal somewhere? That’s what would happen. And I’d totally join a mafia
It is definitely not the right answer.
I can make wine, to prevent me from making wine you’d have to make literally every fruit illegal, and even then there are millions of wild apple trees in my country that you’d have to cut down. It’s impossible to prevent people from making alcohol.
In contrast to that, you can’t grow anything that produces caffeine in my country. I’d have to import it, and checking mail in customs is a hell of a lot easier than checking the vast areas of empty forest to see if I’m illegally growing apples.
Pretty much the same as with every illegal product. It would move to black market because as long as there is demand there will always be a supply.
If people couldn’t find alternatives and caffeine wasn’t illegally available…
Many people who need coffee to function in the morning would lose their shit. Overworked people and workers with really long shifts will not be able to keep up. People would probably fall asleep at work.
I will become Caffeine version of Pablo Escobar 😉😂👊🏻
The governments probably stop functioning. Apocalypse ensues.
