This is such a nihilistic, fucked-up view of the world. Is this proposed policy the silver bullet to stop addiction and drug abuse? No, clearly not. Will it help alleviate some suffering? Almost certainly so. Just to point out some of the more obvious rebuttals to your "arguments": - not all drug users are addicts. Not even heroin is instantly addictive. Recreational, non-addicted users of illegal drugs benefit extremely from "drug checks," as does the public health system which would have to deal with accidental overdoses and poisonings otherwise. - Not all drug addicts have dysfunctional lives. Plenty of people live decades with their addiction while also holding down jobs, having families, etc. Is that ideal? No, most certainly not in most cases. Would "drug checks" lower the risk of these drug users? Yes. - Not all drug addicts that experience dysfunctional lives as a consequence of their drug use will die from overdosing. In fact, drug checks would make that more unlikely. - Drug check facilities would be a venue for drug users to get into contact with the public health care system and to find ways out of their addiction. Again, it will not resolve the problems associated with the misuse of drugs, which has existed literally forever (even animals get purposely drunk on fermenting fruits). But that is neither the point of the proposed policy and you have so far contributed nothing to this discussion.
