OK ok so maybe the free needles thing isn't working. The problem is that while the needles may be free, the drugs are not and how are you supposed to get money for drugs if you're on drugs? So I think what we should do is not just make the needles free, but pay people to take the needles so that they have money to buy drugs. This will reduce harm because people won't have to exert themselves by collecting cans or menacing tourists or stabbing asians to earn money.
