Try 6 MONTHS. It’s probably the only lifestyle she knows, and thinks it’s perfectly normal.

That is debatable.
Considering that people can be born with mental illnesses such as sociopathy, I strongly doubt your statement is correct.
Originally posted by StarStorm Heh an old argument. Are people inherently good, or inherently evil?
We’re born with a desire to have more than others, to be on top of things. Much like it is with all races and beings on earth. A common word to use for it is greed: Most people consider greed an evil thing.
I swear, that girl will be popular with the men in Highschool, and the women will hate her. Not because she’s beautiful, but because she’ll coem across as a ho.

Ah, but considering that sociopathy is acquanited with being inherently bad and people doing bad things, if not all sociopaths are bad people (my brother is actually a sociopath, and despite him being a felon it has nothing to do with his sociopathy at all), then I don’t think thats a valid point at all.
She doesn’t look like a “heroin chick” at all, I don’t know why the article called her that. She isn’t really a “heroin zombie” either.

Yeah. We aren’t necessarily inherintly good or evil. We’re inherintly selfish (self-preservation instinct) and our parents and our society model “correct” manifestations or expressions of that selfishness.
Capitalism, at its best, manipulates that selfishness and channels it to a positive end (the potential personal reward/payoff for coming up with a new invention or whatever that lines your pockets and makes everyone else’s lives better).
At worst, a few people who already have more than they need just keep ripping off everyone else.
The article didn’t say “heroin chick”, it said “heroin-chic” refering to the eye makeup. Now, of course why making someone look like a druggie would make them sexy is stupid and irresponsible.
