Seeing society as responsible for drug abuse issues, of their many varieties, is very Rousseau.

Rousseau and Hobbes were just two dudes. I'd wager neither of them cracked the code entirely.

To claim that addicts have no responsibility for their addiction is as absurd as the idea that individual humans can be fully identified separate from the society that raised them or that they live in.
