addicts are rich?


Q: Are substance addictions more common among the poor or among the rich?

A: There are far more rich people who are addicted to legal drugs (alcohol is a drug) than poor people who are addicted to street drugs.

12 percent of the U.S. population are alcohol addicts (alcoholics) = 39,915,851 U.S. alcohol addicts
+
4.7 percent of the U.S. population are prescription drug addicts = 15,633,708 U.S. prescription drug addicts
+
2.5 percent of the U.S. population are non-prescription drug addicts = 8,315,802 U.S. non-prescription drug addicts
=
19.2 percent of the U.S. population are drug/alcohol addicts = 63,865,361 U.S. drug/alcohol addicts

Who knows how many social media addicts there are? Who knows how many gambling addicts there are? Who knows how many video game addicts there are? Who know how many [insert almost anything you can think of here] addicts there are? That’s why Earth is The Addicted Planet.


AND THAT’S THE TRUTH
