cocaine sales would go up. People would try microdosing. Some of those people would end up regular dosing.
There would be a black market, not only for coffee and tea, but also for caffeine powder, which people would sprinkle into anything.
Peoples' overall caffeine consumption would go down. That girl from my high school who got the shakes every afternoon would probably have been better off.
