    Is this a genetic problem with having some kind of alcoholic gene or something else?
    Did someone oppress them into drinking?

    Does smoking weed keep you from holding a job? Does it give your kids FAS? Are you really trying to equate using recreational drugs with alcoholism?

    Are you really trying to say drug addiction and alcoholism are not related? I am addicted to weed, and I started smoking it when I was 16, just as I left a children's home and became an adult in charge of my own destiny.

    Yes, my weed habit has certainly cost me opportunities.

    are 60% of white people addicted to weed to the point they can't hold a job?

    I don't know why you keep trying to make this about you.

    Is this relevant? I chose to smoke weed, I chose to not give it up despite me being aware it was impacting negatively on my motivation and productivity. I'm not smoking weed as a 40 year old adult because I had a shit childhood.

    I have no idea why natives drink more. I imagine it's cultural. If your parents drink to excess, chances are you'll consider it normal.
