“For every addict who dies, 1000 take their place.”
Not for very long... If the deaths were more rampant and in our faces everyday it would be overwhelming. And I am going to give some credit to the species for being observant when it directly and personally affects them such as a loved one. They actually do learn from this.
“Addiction does not discriminate. Sometimes extremely skilled and very useful people slip into addiction.”
Too bad, It is still a mental impairment if they did not learn from all the more common mass personal connections in their faces if they were legal. That is their own personal responsibility.
Rather nihilistic, but you do you. 👍
