Good question. I’d say it’s possible. The government has already pushed several unpopular acts - i.e. raising of the retirement age, monetisation of privileges (for the lack of a better term) for pensioners, introduction of “orthodoxy lessons” in schools, etc. If served properly (i.e. to prevent children from mucking about and getting into drugs and politics) I can kind of see it being popular. Not to mention the possibility of selling it to children themselves as an act of independence.

Hey now! Drugs cost money! What better way to earn that money legitimately than to engage in child labour?
Does it seem likely to become an actual law?
