I disagree. I guess I see addiction as an escape from life, not something that's necessarily taught. It brings commonality to all man in that no one is exempt regardless of creed, social status, etc. In fact, I'd say that the person in the ghetto uses their social status as a crutch and a reason to use. The middle class are no different. They may use simply because they are middle class, are going to have to work a shitty meaningless job their whole life, then die alone in a medicare facility.

See, it's not all roses no matter where you come from. Once we can understand that people are really the same at their core, we can better understand how addiction spans young and old, rich and poor, etc.

Becoming addicted, and fighting the addiction are 2 different things. Of course anyone in any walk of life could become addicted. But a person born and bred into a middle class society should be FAR better suited to dealing with that addiction than a person raised by junkies. It just seems obvious.
 
I have an addiction to hating Geek Squad employees. I even go so far as to make threads across multiple boards bashing them for no reason.
 
Addiction just means you haven't had a satisfying amount yet. You have to do it until you puke blood or wake up in the emergency room.
