Agreed, my opinion always was that people move on to drugs because cannabis just didn't do that job. They aren't chasing a new high, its that cannabis never gave them the high they actually wanted. Addicts gonna be addicts. The premise of the gateway theory is that somehow cannabis induces people to do other drugs as an inevitability. That somehow cannabis was an introduction to their addiction. However im not sure that we can say there is a direct causality so much as correlation.
