Oh absolutely. During the 80’s, when the media was focused on all the problems of the urban ghettoes and the crack epidemic, I thought that if the ghetto is that bleak, and jobs that scarce, escaping to crack or heroin made sense. Crack was real, and the media was probably in scare-people mode, please don’t jump on me. Just what I thought. We have more people and less need for them than ever. If no one needs you, it’s easier to escape and if you die so what? Not that guys will always be there for their families anyway, but at least most try and without those families, no need to try. Psychedelic therapy might be the answer. Just a thought.
