And the taxpayers willingly support this?

[Bertha Fanation]

Don't worry. In a few years (very few) the Muslems will introduce euthenasia to help these folks out in their golden years.

[gopwinsin04]

And the euthanasia will probably be taxpayer supported as well..

I didn't think drug abusers lived long enough to become senior citizens.

[ken5050]

They're up there with the "old hookers" rest home..

[bigfootbob]

Thanks for the vision.

In the Dutch lands, it looks like they are all growing old with free health care..

I bet heroin works wonders for rheumatoid arthritis.

'Nympho Hills' retirement village?

[ken5050]

you're welcome....

[gopwinsin04]

How about a retirement home for alkies? Could be a swinging place..

[ken5050]

Whatever..but you can bet it shows a profit..

[gopwinsin04]

Not if the 'gentlemen of lesiure' come to get their fair share, the place would need 24 hour security up the wazoo

[ken5050]

I just want the Viagra franchise..

[gopwinsin04]

You could retire on that vending contract right there..

'Old addicts are just like other old people,' said Carmel, 58. 'All we want is a safe quiet place where we can get on with our lives.'

Should read "all we want is a safe quiet place where we can get high" Junkies dont have lives.They just live for the next shot of "junk".

[Hillwoman]

Ahhhhhhhhhh,

The easier, softer way.

[ken5050]

That, and the lip gloss contract for Fox News..

[jolie560]

A report from the imagination. I also like the vision, tho.

"...half the users are now over 40, and many are in their 60's."

I had to do a double take on this one. Forty, fifty, and sixty year olds in an "Old Folks Home"??
