In politics most people just critizise each other, but what did your local government actually do a good job on?

    Giving addicts free drugs is a subset of harm reduction. Honestly, at this point in the discussion, we need numbers to be productive.

        If they’re not stealing for money, supporting the black market, dying of overdoses, or spreading disease by sharing needles, and have consistent dosages and proximity to support programs, why quit?

        Probably the massive social stigma and loss of positive effects due to built tolerance.

        It would make the problem way less urgent at any rate.

          Yeah sorry I’m not sure social stigma is going to stop addicts from using drugs. agree to disagree I guess.
