  It's still unnecessary. You are lucky if you have not experienced addiction. Besides, I think it's stretching to just add the 40% alcohol substance abusers to the 30% and say "well that's 70% -- a majority". My father, as an example, is a high-functioning alcoholic. He's held C-Suite positions for the last 30 years of his life all while going through vodka like it was going out of style. But that's all to say it's still unnecessary. These are people and they are struggling with substance abuse. Like I said, have some empathy.

    I agree they're struggling with addiction. That doesn't change the fact that they're addicted.
