Have we learned nothing from trying to impose "democracy" on the world?!?! Giving stuff to people, except for short-term aid to prevent hunger/homelessness, never works. And I do think taxes on the ridiculously wealthy is a good way to start......the rise of the concept of the middle class was based on high tax rates, but also strong Unions, giving people power!

To basically equate drug-taking/drinking addicts to people who climb Everest, zip-line, bungee jump etc. is just ridiculous! One group actually Does things...has fun, gets excited, finds a new temple complex, or a beneficial microbe, the other sits in a stupor, when not knocking off liquor stores, or grandma. I have lived with addicts, I know I have an addictive personality myself, but have avoided triggers all my life. i can state that Needing(absolutely Needing!) to ingest something to assuage a craving is Not like trying water-skiing for the first time!
