I strongly believe that drug addiction is never the drug's fault, but the user's. It has to do with the user's sense of responsibility, willpower, and genetics.

I'm sure Nullific can comment.
Drug addiction is a disease, not a moral choice. I'm very, very tired of people suggesting otherwise. Groups like Alcoholics Anonymous have taken a step towards treating alcoholism as a neurological disease, and not a question of "morality" (and absurd idea). Relevant studies show only genetic and psychological/neurological precursors.

So it is not a question of "fault" at all.
