Think about it as a policy maker. You have a choice whom to blame - an individual or their environment.
If you blame the individual there is nothing you can do - we can’t change other people.
If you blame the environment now there’s something you can do. You can try to reduce supply by making it illegal (only works to a point) or you can try to reduce demand by increasing overall quality of life - housing, healthcare, and generally a way to escape the clutches of the rat race that is life in America for so many.
