The company behind Suboxone, Reckitt Benckiser Pharmaceuticals, is likely spending a lot of money lobbying for this. Someone should investigate this.

Suboxone is the opioid pharmaceutical given to opiate addicts, like methadone used to be. While methadone is stilling being used in addiction treatments, Suboxone is now the favorite, as it can be prescribed to patients for 30 days at a time, whereas a junky has to go to the methadone clinic daily to dose. Patients can stay on Suboxone for as long as that want to usually.

Look at the stock price for the maker of Suboxone, Reckitt Benckiser Pharmaceuticals over the last 10-20 years. It's been an amazing investment. That ever-climbing stock value is threatened by Kratom.
