Does Society Need Recovery? We can learn much from the recovery program. Just as addicts rationalize chemical use, so our society rationalizes its destructive behavior. Industries that profit from destructive acts rationalized their actions as beneficial to humankind. We raze forests, strip-mine, and fill the sky with chemicals so people can have a better life. Intelligent people inhale smoke that causes cancer and emphysema, and the same government that condemns cigarettes as a leading cause of death gives bountiful subsidies to tobacco growers. Addiction sacrifices the future for short-term gain. Our society should learn the lessons of recovery.
