Read up on US prohibition and how it funded the Mafia. It just changes the form of the societal disease.

The answer to addiction is having support and care on place for those that fall to it so society helps pick them up again. You can't stop the abuse of substances unless you fix why people are crawling into a hole to avoid the world. Lack of mental health is a disease of society as well as the individual.

I think all those in the management chain should be held responsible. Maybe with a weighting of the proportion of those under them engaged in the criminal behaviour.

I get where you're coming from, but I think you'd just see companies divide into tiers where one tier would subcontract to the tier below. Think "cleaning services companies" all the way down.

These seem like reasonable propositions
