I think that Jacob is overstating his case somewhat. It's ridiculous to say that certain drugs are not addictive at all - and I don't think that's actually what he's trying to say - but something in an individual person's body chemistry and neural makeup will control how strongly a drug will affect them. Some people can snort cocaine once, think to themselves 'That was interesting' and then never do it again. Whereas other people will get a full blown addiction and destroy their lives.
Well that makes more sense. I do understand that some people have stronger will power to turn it down. But to say that drugs have no affect on the user - addiction-wise, is just silly.
