How does "we need to spend billions to get these people" translate into "people shouldn't be responsible for their choices?" Because if they aren't responsible for their choices, I am?
It isn't even less money, we passed that mark a long time ago. The average junkie in Seattle costs King County around $100k/year (w/o making any progress on their addiction), while we can put them in prison for around half that. This isn't about saving money anymore, its about throwing money into a bottomless pit and seeing nothing improving at all.
