As someone who has seen the horrible effects of serious drug addiction, I can say without a doubt that drugs are readily available anywhere. I can also tell you that the WOD has been a failure. It creates a ridiculous margin for the drug dealers and in turn makes it worth killing for. Legalize, educate, and treat anyone who wants it.

Anybody can get treatment any time they want it.

If course, that's not what you meant, right?

This is just so wrong on so many levels.

Why the hell should my tax dollars go to treat some meth-mouth that doesn't want to be treated? Are we going to give them free drugs too? If not, they'll have to steal to pay for the legal ones anyway.

End the war on drugs. We can then employ hundreds of thousands of social workers, who can all say, "I feel your pain."

Money spent on the WOD will be a pittance compared to treating the dregs of the WOD. Although it should be right up the alley of some of you that want to nationalize health care. This'll put that on the fast track.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

I am skiing in Park City Utah this week. I bet I could drive into Salt Lake City, and within 20 mins find any drug made or grown. And,,,I am a 60 year old grandmom. Hey,,I bet I could find it right here outside my hotel room in Park City.

No matter how much money is poured into the War on Drugs, the cost of street drugs keeps going down. We already have a free and open market in drugs. It is called the Black Market.

You are right. Legalize, educate, and treat those who want it.

And just who do you think is going to pay for that treatment?
