Treating those addicted to heroin as criminals is far less likely to help them or society, and is probably just as expensive if not moreso. What exactly do you propose doing instead?
- scurvy 9y agoNot sure, that's why I'm asking. Rehab? Government provided drugs? Safe places for taking drugs that also provide the drugs? If there's someone on drugs that wants to be on drugs, I think a real possibility is that we keep giving them drugs until they want to change. Remove the criminal element and possibility of disease and adultered drugs be having the government provide the drugs. Then give them help once someone is ready for help. Just spit balling here. Maybe I'm wrong and forced rehab has better efficacy rates.
