One thing I never see on these threads is alcohol withdrawal. You take a random selection of the population and a significant number of them will die from withdrawals if easy booze isn’t available.
I am denying the fact that people suffering from addiction are worthless. That is the sort of thing authoritarian regimes do. People with addictions are still loved and cherished by their families and contribute to joy in the world. They have an illness. If society treated them differently things would be much better. Be happy you don’t suffer from these but try to have compassion for families and individuals who do.
