Re: Drinking vs Gambling

What I can't get over is how some people still think weed is worse than alcohol. But this is all pychology I suppose, it is a funny thing how we work us humans.

Yeah, it's all psychology. Life in itself is all about psychology. People feeling inferior or superior to others is about a mindset. It's psychology. People picking fields of study is all about their psychology of what field of study makes them feel better.

I explained that drinking part earlier. Let me buttress it further with a simple scenario from your comment above, using a party event. Would you as a non-smoker and teetotaller rather sit with a bunch of people smoking weed at an event or those sipping alcoholic drinks? Your response to that question is how the society views it. Again, have you seen any criminal caught at a crime scene reek of alcohol or weed/drugs? Most of them often confess they're into drugs rather than alcohol. I guess that's why the society doesn't as much as see drunks as harmful as it sees drug and gambling addicts. The society believes those in the latter category can do anything horrible to get money and fund their addiction.

I mean honestly I feel like parties today the people drinking are rifht next to the people smoking and they're all in each other's midst. We are at a point in society where old school meets new school. We aren't far from weed at least in the USA to becoming completely normalized and honestly id give it another decade or two to set in but the younger generations I feel like are very much so pro smoking and maybe even less pro drinking. Its an interesting junction, but that is all just my gut feelings I have no research or proof just my intuition speaking

The new generation and the old generation come together and establish their relationship. They agree that both smoking and drinking are unhealthy and they think that it should not be drink in public place. Some break the law due to disobedience and create public suffering. If I consider the context of my country, I see that nowadays smoking and drinking is considered normal among people of both generations at parties but they behave differently in the outside environment.

As I see it, as time goes by, the children of today are becoming addicted to drugs and gambling. It seems that no such incident happened in the past, but it has not happened so much. If we look around us now, we will see that the amount of drugs and gambling is constantly increasing around us. Minor children are more prone to drugs and gambling. If this continues, the youth society will reach a very bad stage.
