That loser/winner dichtomy is one of the reasons for that titanic drug problem in the first place.
If you fail and are allready frail, and society has decided to put you in the loser-box, drugs might be the only thing to make life seem bearable.
The idea, that you could just step from the race-track, and be happy - without giving a thought on who is high/low in status - independent and with worth outside of the ratrace, doesent even exist in that animalistic (eat or be eaten) mindset.
- x5n1 11y agoWinners do drugs just like losers do drugs. Winners usually have a lot of money and come from affluence so they don't usually get in trouble for their drug use while losers do. A certain portion of the population does drugs, it cuts socio-economic lines. The reasoning might be different, but people from all walks of life do drugs.
- reagency 11y agoPlenty of winners have lost their winner status via destructive drug abuse. It is practically a cliche in hr entertainment industry.
