I see where you're coming from, and even if I agree with you in principle, I think that the practical outweighs it on the drug issue.
I've spent a lot of time speculating about life after the legalization of drugs ... of course, this is a very personalized view, and includes the hell my work-life would become if every single goddamn one of those junkies decided they wanted treatment.
Of course, in my perfect world, everybody gets ONE government funded attempt at rehab.
The disease model is thrown out.
A lot of people die of overdoses in the first six months to a year from the WHOO HOO factor, but then it levels off.
Oh, yeah, and they have to develop a breath-a-lyzer for drugs. Even with current laws getting people on DUI for anything other than alcohol is tough.
