You need to look at Canada, the Netherlands, Portugal, and other American cities. Canada never tried to mass incarceration imprison-away the problem and they're rapidly discovering that they actually need some criminal charges and some incarceration or people don't care to improve. Taking fentanyl is literally the best feeling thing in life and you expect a junkie to just stop living in a free-drug camp? The Netherlands and Portugal though have an incarceration-based rehab program. They don't ask the junkie if they're ready, they pick up anyone drugged out in public. But their programs work because there's essentially no other choice. You can't just refuse to detox because they don't give you free Fentanyl like Vancouver and SF. You can't support a junkie by giving them poison. They wean you, in 3-9 months, with long-halflife opioid agonists and then you spend years, sober, learning to live clean. The policies you support are killing people with kindness.
