if yah look throughout history ppl seeking altered states of reality to help escape the present is the norm and not in anyway unusual.....quite frankly its hardwired into the human condition with no way to escape it.....no amount of legislation or severity of punishment will ever get rid of it.....for those that say just kill the addicts the Chinese tried that and actually had the balls to carry it out but gave up after they discovered it didnt actually even slow down use.....
only real solution is, is let those that are gonna destroy themselves do so and hold out a hand and help those that decide they want to quit.....cause quite frankly unless a person wants to quit they wont no matter what the punishment is....
