Ah yes, particularly when the whole society is geared to drug use and addiction as a way of life, and a means of sustaining the economy. I'm talking about nicotine, caffeine, refined sugar, alcohol, uppers, downers, addictive over-the-counter medicines and prescriptions, TV watching, shopping addiction (the most over-consumptive civilization in history heads out dutifully each day to the mall...while the 3rd World starves), sex addiction (encouraged in almost every form of commercial advertising), fashion addiction, automobile addiction (resulting in horrors like Los Angeles freeways), gambling addiction (coming soon to your town, courtesy of the Mob), Internet addiction...

Internet addiction????
