Been saying that for almost 50 years; set up GOVERNMENT DRUG STORES

How has that worked out with alcohol and the ABC stores?

Cali has automatic voter registration, same day registration with no real checks, mail in voting and vote harvesting. Every passed-out, od-ing zombie “votes.” This is a core ‘rat constituency.

Yes. Its all over the US. Coming straight over the border with our new neighbors. China manufacturers a lot of it. Many drugs from herion to Xanax are laced with it unbeknownst to the people taking it. China is killing us off with Covid and Fentynal.

>>Seems to be a self correcting problem.<<

They don’t want cops bothering them? Fine. Stop treating overdoses among the homeless.

Except it was the British who were pushing opium in China, not the Americans.

Because the drug cartels are controlling the Democrat politicians.

That is probably what those in power want. When these people die from drug overdoses, they are no longer a problem to the city. If they are not going to crack down on the drug dealers and flow of drugs, they have to hope that the dealers run out of customers eventually.

Trouble is, there seems to be a never ending stream of candidates. tHe key is the stupid statement of Boudin about making it “easier to get help than to get high.” Any competent person knows that to the addict, getting high IS getting help. If she lives long enough to hit bottom and turn herself in, then she has a chance. Otherwise this foolish approach is destined to fail and the deaths will continue.

Stop providing the narcan. Eventually the problem corrects itself. It’s not that hard.

Some Americans were there as individuals sure. The US did not fight a war against China to force them to take opium though. Nor was opium being grown in the US for export to China with the approval of the US government.

Here are my partial solutions to the homeless situation:

1. Tough love: they can get a little help but must beyond that must find their own way to survive. Their alternative is prison or death.

2. Don’t have homeless become concentrated in large communities such as happening in some large cities. Puts them in bad company. No company at all, or the company of non-homeless would be better for them.

For the druggies you have to have government stores to keep the products REALLY CHEAP, if left up to free enterprise they have to include packaging, shipping, stocking, etc.

Only government can ignore the requirements of free enterprise!
