        Addiction is an illness of choice. Life is all about choice. You can't escape choice, but you can learn how to control actionspic.twitter.com/GKei4YGGW1

        You mean addiction is a choice not an illness. Like alcoholism is a choice. Choose not to ingest either of them

        I'd say once you are hooked it isn't a character flaw but an illness but a character flaw made you try the deal in the 1st place.

        need to shift focus from crime and punishment for addicts to helping to get them clean. The "war" on drugs has failed.
