[ExI] fermi paradox again, was: addiction

[Tara Maya]

Well, women who are kidnapped and addicted to crack or whatever are also being beaten, raped and surrounded by other women already addicted to crack. There’s often usually good reasons for them to fear they have no way to escape and no other serious options. 
 
I suspect that helps the addiction gain a toehold.
