If alcohol isn't addictive then why does a severe alcoholic go into DT's without it? It's a physical need,not just emotional.

There may be a few bootleggers still around but you won't find the local pushers selling pints on the street corner. They will be dealing in a more profitable commodity. The gangs in this country aren't making their money on alcohol.
