Some 75 percent of those addicted to heroin come from the 20 percent of society with the lowest incomes. Until there are enough jobs to go around, until everyone has a decent home and a decent education, until we have uniformly stable and secure family structures—in short, until the world is a much better place than it is now—the mental problems associated with addiction—and addiction, itself, in one form or another—will continue to occur.
