It's quite ridiculous if that's the case. Someone getting him or herself willingly into an addiction (especially nicotine) should not constitute a "disability".

It's quite ridiculous if that's the case. Someone getting him or herself willingly into an addiction (especially nicotine) should not constitute a "disability". Unless they're classified as mentally disabled since they couldn't judge right from wrong to begin with, in which case they have other issues to worry about.
- MisterBastahrd 7y agoSo if I get drunk and drive into a tree and can't work anymore because my injuries were too severe, I should be able to get disability, but if I managed to get hooked on an addictive substance then I can't even be allowed to manage my addiction symptoms? Only thing ridiculous here is your short-sightedness.
- apta 7y agoPerhaps, getting drunk is a deliberate decision in general. People should face the consequences of such (and we already see it).
