Addiction must be treated as a disease- not a character defect. But the mainstream news media frequently ignores the social / economic context of drug addiction.
Millions of young working class Americans are in despair with no " future to hope in ".
As the condition of the American working class - and the ruined American middle class -deteriorates there will be more cases of seemingly hopeless drug addiction and alcoholism.
There is even now a marked class distinction in longevity -and suicide.
" Wall St. Hillary " will save them ? " For profit " treatment centers ?

It is a truly confused " identity politics " that tries to racialize every social evil and disorder.
And what is the solution ? Some militant affirmative action program for spreading and equalizing social misery ? At least " socialist " Bernie Sanders focused on the class basis of this unacceptable inequality.
Democratic socialists want to rid the world of economic misery - not equalize it.
