Same reason why so many people thought that removing the control of alcohol sales from the Alberta government (remember the ALCB?) would lead to widespread alcoholism in Alberta since alcohol would be readily available to the puplic upon privatization of liquor stores.

People can't be trusted when it comes to any type of temptation, whether it be sex, drugs, or alcohol. Make things easier for us and all hell will break loose.
