It seems the liberalization approach is failing in a few places. Part of me knows that it’s because only the most surface level feel good things are being done, and we are just helping addicts stay addicts (and alive!) instead of treating them. On the other hand, I’m not holding my breath for “our current approach is failing, we need more of it” to get ANY political traction. Not these days.
