Actually, I have 2 close relatives that do. One is addicted to cocaine, the other Crystal Meth. And another relative addicted to Heroine, but is on Methadone.

Each one would tell you that after leaving their support group meetings, they would be much more challenged to stay clean if they saw their drug of choice sitting in front of their face at a Wal-Mart, dirt cheap, and ready to use, than knowing they would have to pay out the butt for a crap drug at their dealers place.

Ditto for alcoholics. Should we ban alcohol?

Any alcoholic would tell you exactly the same thing, especially around the holidays and football season.
