Not a bad idea.

History shows us that when you make something illegal, you will usher in a black market controlled by cartels (aka "companies") that will use lawless methods to gain market share because they don't have to worry about the law in the first place.

Most of them however do not have a problem with alcohol. Although if you're asking me, with what alcohol costs society as a whole, I'd dump it all, and yes I would love to ship the alcoholics as well as the potheads to Mexico.
