ROBERT DOWNEY JR.
Thank you, Amy Peikoff, for your excellent insights. Drug abuse is a
regrettable personal choice made by individuals, not a disease that
strikes at random. Overcoming addiction is a laudable personal choice
often interfered with by a society that pushes 12-step recovery
programs and "rehabilitation" clinics as answers for those who seek
the strength to resist the lure of drugs. Downey will solve his drug
addiction problem when he wants to solve his drug addiction
problem--in his own time, in his own way.
