I think the problem is not the addicts/abusers, the problem is the faulty reasoning which makes certain busybody people think it's their job to force everyone else in the world conform to their personal opinions about life. They try to control what is not appropriate for them to control. People should just butt out of other people's lives and let them make their own decisions about things that affect them alone, and let them deal with their own consequences, i.e. "Live and let live". It might sound simplistic but I do think the world could be a much better place generally if people could just understand this. Hank
