Drugs Aren’t the Problem": Neuroscientist Carl Hart on Brain Science & Myths About Addiction !!

"When I started looking at the evidence more carefully, it became clear to me that drugs weren’t the problem. The problem was poverty, drug policy, lack of jobs — a wide range of things," Dr. Carl Hart explained earlier this year in an interview that ranks #7 in our list of the 20 most popular segments of 2014.
"One of the things that shocked was when I discovered that 80 to 90 percent of the people who actually use drugs — like crack cocaine, heroin, methamphetamine, marijuana — were not addicted."
Watch: Democracy Now! interviewed neuropsychopharmacologist Dr. Carl Hart about his research on drug addiction earlier this year.
