The only way to keep gangs from making money off drugs is to sell crack, etc in convenience stores. Otherwise there will be a street market. Far better to have let her walk and continue living a productive, though addicted, life. Wait, we're going to have addicts that are working as professionals? This tends to make me think I was right to think legal drugs will be a civil rights issue. c) We are blowing perhaps $100 Billion a year on chasing down and locking up drug criminals yet we have the worst drug problem of any industrialized nation. It simply isn't working. ...A friend tells me the story of his nephew, who was so addicted nothing else would do but to put him in prison; otherwise he would steal people blind to get drug money. Well, there are other ways of dealing with it that are more productive if people just wouldn't write these kids off. Other ways means rehab of some kind. I suspect we can blow just as much paying for rehab as we do on law enforcement. Assuming anyone goes to rehab .. most people who do so now do it cause the legal system makes them.
