I identified poverty as one of the things that can lead people to feel the lack of desire to be present in their lives which leads to addiction.

You're completely misrepresenting my statement. People who are happy, content, and fulfilled in their lives don't usually abuse drugs or alcohol to an extent that they become addicted. Impoverished people don't tend to be as happy, content, or fulfilled as people who are not impoverished.

If anything this is an extremely understanding and tolerant position to hold regarding addiction, and that is what I was putting forth. Never did I say that all poor people are addicts, or that all addicts are poor people.

Then I realized your name is china_troll. Well played.

You know you are bullshitting. You are avoiding the real issues by trying to divert it to a PC-safe corner, i.e. poverty. That is only PC in today's American political environment. If you try to insinuate that shit in other countries, like China, you'll get your ass kicked.

BTW, the most violent ones in Chicago are also likely the richest ones, i.e. drug dealers.
