The Founders weren't fans of taxpayers paying for the problems of their neighbors when it could be avoided.
Druggies need rehab, hospital care, jail, burial and other costly things that they rarely can afford themselves.
They are like dependent little dysfunctional children as adults and I don't see how the Founders could salute that.

The Founders wouldn't have created a nanny state (or worked to further it as your position does) that would have led to these costs.
It's really very simple, you favor laws that don't work, ignore savagery to the bill of rights for no benefit, want to incarcerate adults who have made their own free choices about what goes into their body and want to continue drug prohibition so that the artificially inflated costs can provide the incentive for the crime associated with drug use. You also want my tax dollars to support a war on drugs at a cost that far exceedss what is spent on prohibition.
You sound like man who want to control others and cost the rest and I usually limit my association with such childish personalities.
I give you the last word if you want it, children like that.
True enough. And it [socialism] "could be avoided" by adhering to constitutional principles in writing our laws. -- Principles which you will not admit apply.

There you go, guy, -- preaching the socialist line. -- People like you advocating such 'needed' social services are why we have a 'drug problem'. Left alone, addicts die young.

They wouldn't have.
In the founders day, and for 150 years after, our gov't did not treat addicts as "dependent little dysfunctional children". -- You prohibitionists & socialists changed all that when you gained power. --- Time for you to admit it, -- and for all of us to get rid of the socialist/prohibitionist lifestyle you advocate.
