Do we have to pay for the dentist visit when they loose all their teeth?
Well of course we do.

That’s it, lets foster meth addiction.

Meth is pretty much one of the few drugs that everyone agrees on that should be banned.

"People kept coming to our program and saying that they were getting syringes because they didn't have access to a pipe,"

And you believed them?!?

I have no problems with this at all, along with needle exchanges. I’d rather see them prevent the spread of diseases among these people than to pay really BIG $$$$$ when they get badly ill due to associated illnesses.

And what about unintended consequences? Do these programs really cut back drug abuse or prevent spread of disease??

Supposedly handing out condoms and birth control in school cuts back pregnancy and VD. But there seems to be concerns as to whether those programs work or just encourage more sex. I wonder if needle exchanges really make people safer or just foster more drug use.

Why not lace those free meth pipes with Strichnine and just speed up the inevitable process?

I mean that will certainly “cure” them, right?

It would progressive in the same vein that the founder of planned un-parenthood was progressive.....

Looks like there is only one way to fight drugs: to set up kiosks at every corner where any registered addict can get, for free, any drug of their choice. Open 24/7. Within a month the demand for free drugs will drop; at the same time the city's Coroner Office will have to expand their staff.

It's perfectly logical, though, even if heartless. Is a man free to abuse himself? He is, in a perfectly free society. So let him use his freedom. The drug will do a quick job on him. Free supply of the drug only means that the addict has no need to go out and kill people for a couple of dollars. Will that be a suicide? Yes; however on each kiosk there will be a phone number to call in case the addict wants to live. If he doesn't call, it's his choice.

Any other solution belongs to the "Nanny State" class of solutions, where the state or the society needs to protect a person from himself. It doesn't work anyway. So in the end those who are determined to kill themselves with drugs will do that, one way or another. Usually that involves a lot of crime.

So if I understand this if I am a drug addict I can get free stuff to sustain my habit.
Well I’m not a drug addict but I am a sex addict.

Where’s my free hooker?

But pick up a fine briar pipe, and they’ll treat you as a pariah.
