Here's your logic:

There are a fixed number of addictive personalities in the world.

As long as alcohol is available, all addicts will turn to alcohol.

When new addictive drugs become available, alcoholics will simply substitute the new drug for alcohol, and there are no knew addicts added to the population.

And if you think that's a stupid conclusion, then you must be positing that the addition of a new population of addicts in the world is just fine, because "its no worse than...."

Here's your logic:

When you ASSUME you make an ASS of U not ME. I never made any of the claims you ascribe to me, nor are those the only possible basis for questioning the claim that legalization will increase addiction.

And none of that has anything to do with what I actually posted - which is that if adding legal substances no worse than alcohol is bad as you implied, then it follows that subtracting such a substance, namely alcohol itself, must be good.
