The answer to this should be based on the simple facts of the matter:
-Drug addiction treatment has less than a 3% success rate
-Facilitating drug usage encourages increased rates of addiction by appearing to eliminate consequences.  The hot stove model of consequence for behavior is eliminated.
-People that have contributed to society are dying in hospitals while awaiting treatment
-Elderly veterans of WW2 are left to die because the cost of intervention exceeds the expected reward.
-Tax dollars are stretched beyond reason, schools are closed for lack of funds, teachers are refuse facilities that would benefit their students, Universities are grossly underfunded, our military is so underfunded that it's become a joke.

And yet, we continue to squander resources on the hopeless and the worthless..........  individuals that for the most part have chosen to sponge off society, and who openly ridicule anyone offering a helping hand.  What needs to be done to end this stupidity?
