Which is why I'm saying the highly addictive drugs need to be illegal - a court can then order treatment.
- pstuart 3y agoLegality of substance abuse shouldn't be the factor for whether or not treatment can be compelled. My mother was an alcoholic and in and out of psych wards. They'd let her out the moment she could charm them and say she was ok. Fun times. But no illegal drugs involved, just plain old alcohol. And it's looking that alcohol has no "medical benefits" and is flat out bad for you. In the interest of the people wouldn't you agree that's reason to make it illegal?
- naasking 3y agoMaking drugs illegal is not the only way to do this. Probably not even the best way.
