    Not sure why you are being down voted, you are completely correct

    Most “facts” surrounding drug addiction are just marketing schemes that lobbyists like DARE have claimed over the years.

    No nicotine is not 10x more addictive than cocaine, and no it’s not more addictive than heroin. As others have said addiction is measured in different ways, but the most important modifier is withdrawal symptoms. Compared to nicotine or cocaine, heroin withdrawal is several magnitudes worse, and the only one that can kill you.
