I think they are similar problems that flow along a spectrum. Particularly manufactured and|or purified drugs where a good deal of science and technology is used to modify them to make them ever more addictive. That is probably my biggest concerns with legalizing them that even more would be applied. Food can be addictive. I think these major food industries work to make many products more addictive. Yes, one Whopper (just to share the blame some) is probably not going to hook a person (yet!). At some level, I'm not sure they aren't trying to make it so. There is just so much behavioral science being applied against us, the consumers, by these companies. I don't think I can completely dismiss it with a simple "Individual Responsibility" homily. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:321850 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
