The bigger issue here is that its not addictive to "normal" people.There are people to have naturally addictive personalities.I'm sure we have all known some.Some people can get addicted to pepsi or coffee or cheese burgers and a host of other things.But weed is not physically or phsycologically addicting. There are a lot of us that lived through the 60's and 70's that took virtually every recreational drug there was and made it through without being addicted.
