The libertarians would have no public rehab at all

Good!

I'm against both prison AND treatment for drug users. Just leave people alone who are leaving others alone. If someone commits an actual crime while on drugs, then arrest and prosecute them. But drugs in and of themselves should not be criminal, but they also should not "entitle" anyone to any free treatment.

I agree with you statement 100% It is not the business of the State or Federal Government to determine whether I should or should not get high. If one commits a crime while high then arrest them for that crime...but not for being high.
