The vast majority of people that use coke recreational are functioning and will not develop problems. Obviously there are going to be people that develop dependency or health problems or in extreme cases death from it but for most people that thankfully will not arise. It's a problem if you look on it as a problem and the drug trade does cause misery but losing a generation.. I just don't buy that
