I agree, Big Pharma is a prevalent and dark entity in our world. At the same time, I want people to be held accountable for their actions, without blaming something else for their addiction.

For example, say someone has a bad accident and is on high doses of painkillers for a while. Their doctors decide it's been long enough an (ideally) starts waning them off said painkillers. They're addictive, they make you feel better. But that doesn't mean you immediately find other ways to fuel your habit. Go get help instead of picking up some heroin, once you notice that you're dependent. At some point, the people who are addicted and the rest of the world need to realize that there isn't always someone else to blame.
