First I would like to say that millions of people do consume weed every day after work. Without weed, a vast many of them would perhaps be daily alcohol users are.
My second point is, the fact that you have a category of acceptable drugs to consume daily, and include alcohol in it, might be something you should evaluate.
I will drink a bottle of wine on a Friday and Saturday night, but the idea of drinking every night, even if just 1 or 2 drinks, terrifies me.

Okay?
They never said nobody does those things, just that they don’t, and can’t.
My second point is, the fact that you have a category of acceptable drugs to consume daily, and include alcohol in it, might be something you should evaluate.
And maybe your inability to consider the possibility that others can handle responsible use of drugs in moderation and still carry out healthy, productive, well-balanced lives is something that you should evaluate.
Sure there’s people who can’t handle any amount of any substance in their lives, but that doesn’t mean nobody can, and to imply a personal failing is at the core of any alcohol consumption (beyond whatever personal limits you’ve set and decided to impose on others) is just holier-than-thou nonsense.
I would say that the rate of people who are drinking every day and living healthy, productive, well balanced lives is lower than you are assuming.
This isn’t being moralistic about people’s choices, this is just basic understanding of alcohol’s effects on the body and brain.
If I’m a moralist in your viewpoint, than I’m just happy that pushing for getting addicts (of which the majority of daily drinkers are defined as) onto weed is now considered the moral position to hold.
