I think both are not addictive per se, so it's just people whose life is so bad they just want to tune out all the time.

Alchol is more available so more people are alcholics.

I think cannabis is preferable as it won't destroy your liver and there are ways (vaping, edible) to assume it without wrecking your lungs.
