My point was more that it isn't hilarious when people develop drugs to help with addiction.

I was trying to point out that rational skepticism favors the examination of new approaches over sticking to the approach that hasn't been proven in 60+ years.



...and I agree completely but some people don't want to rely on one drug to help them get off another one (even if it is an irrational thought), others aren't even aware that other programs exist to help alcoholics (or know that they are sometimes more effective), while even more believe the AA sponsored propaganda that alcoholics can never be treated and that abstinence is the only approach.
