Addiction

Man is an animal that likes drugs. The only animal that does.

But the drugs he can get addicted to can be almost anything. He can take anything to excess. religion, for example. Or TV programs. Once they get hooked, they want more.

And a marketplace develops to satisfy those needs that didn't exist a year ago.

Time itself has changed, without our noticing it. And people are saying, with complete confidence "Nothing has changed!"
