my theory only applies to druggies that commit serious crime.... crimes committed in order to gain the money to purchase drugs, and those done while under the influence.
How about just putting the distribution of these (mostly pharmaceutical) narcotics back into the
hands of physicians and pharmacists?
Even with "Big Pharm" price structures... the retail cost to maintain an addiction would be modest.
Absent that cost issue... EVERY BIT of the crime associated with contraband is eliminated.
Or is that just too simple for you?
Those inclined to break an addiction c/should get meaningful support.
Those inclined to wallow in it c/should be allowed to kill themselves in peace.
I know that I don't want them habitually sucking up finite taxpayer funded health care resources that could be used on those more deserving.
Yes -- the government is enabling the drug addicts by handing them so many handouts -- why work for a living when welfare handouts add up to over $60,000 a year and when you don't work for a living, every day just looks like the day before it, you have to do drugs just to have something to do.
Cut off the welfare handouts and let people start choosing between getting sober and sharp so they can eat and have housing, or their drugs -- but no more taxpayer handouts.
Didn't they do that with Limbaugh, look what good it did him, he's an even bigger doucehbag now
he goty violent? Yopu do know that Obama said he tired alot of drugs and friends confirmed it.What about JFK is was on drugs provided by AKA doctor feel good well known hollywood preovider of drug painkillers while president.But to answer the question ;no they should not be culled.But takig drungs should not be tolerated any more than i the past by society.Aftera;ll its a direct contribution to gangs and cartels who are responsible for killing thousdands in Mexico in many cases;besides the number in this country.

that's ridiculous though.
if the price comes down then the addict just uses more, and gets dangerously messed up.
eliminating use should be the priority here
