Can anything good be said about being a drug addict?
• So far as is known, nothing good can be said for the drug habit. • It makes people the slaves of a craving which is costly to support and which drives them mad if by any chance they are separated from their supply. • So imperious is the demand of the drug that they will lie for it without scruple and if necessary will steal to get it. • Since the attitude of society towards the habit, when known, includes ostracism, the addicts are likely to drift among lower and lower classes of people, and become more and more degraded.
