Why though does anyone have to pay to stop someone else's addiction??
Why in ****sname should my tax $$ be going to fund someone elses problem
It always someone elses problem to fix bar the idiot who was weak in the first place to dig their own hole and then expect someone else to dig them out without trying to fix it themselves
The cop out that addiction is hard to beat is a load of shit
It is all about will power and discipline
Any one can do it
Being mentally soft between the ears is this issue and giving up because it isn't easy
Cocaine being so expensive is the reason why meth exists. If you legalise cocaine the price drops dramatically and meth will lose most of its appeal.
Years ago weed was good fun and relatively easy to find. But the law went ballistic on weed and pushed people to cheaper though seriously dangerous alternatives. These days weeds considered hard core and as a consequence its relative price has increased a lot as to the potency of the drug - all because it's competing in a different market now than it was 40 years ago.
Legalise it all and all those problems go away. The current system of fines and so on simply does not work.
Educating people of the dangers and providing them an alternative lifestyle is a much better solution.
How about a policy of shooting Christians to lower the incidences of children being molested ? That makes about as much sense as your idea about shooting drug users.
EDIT: Can you even get pot these days that's not connected to a hydroponic strain ? We used to smoke and be laughing and eating anything we could find for several hours. Kids these days smoke the shit and vege out and run around like paranoid little ****s. Hence why I don't do pot anymore - it's no longer a fun drug.

How is it ignorant ??
You want to lose weight eat better and exercise
Don't eat junk food and you will lose weight.
That cures fat ****s
You want to stop smoking??
Stop buying them and after a few days of not having them your addition is gone
That cures smoking ****s
You want to cure alcohol addition??
Stop pouring it down your throat
Problem solved
All solutions that are easy to.find
Problem is they all require the person to be mentally strong and disciplined and do it themselves
If they can't why does society put a hand around them and say it ok that they are failing something because they make excuses and give up??
Not acceptable
I all for shooting of those who molest kids
I sign up to that bandwagon
As for your drug comments about pricing
Well yeah people search out drugs based on price.
You drop the price of cocaine then everyone choose that over other stuff
That just simple market forces
I though don't think anyone is going back to weed full on if the government allow a ten foot forest in your back yard for personal use only
People seek out the drugs for the experience they get from them
They want the huge effect at minimal cost
That part you are going to have a hard time ever beating and marijuana don't supply that
I wouldn't know about that policy in Phillipines I was just talking about the drug policy where even though it probably illegal in Phillipines law the President is more or less given his Police force a green light to terrorise the druggos in their society by putting them in body bags
I sure Phillipines has plenty of other society issues as well that they getting wrong
I find it ignorant that you think it is easy for these people, whom are clearly struggling.
You've "correctly" identified the fix, which is for people to be mentally strong & disciplined. But that's not easy for some, like you are trying to say. And that is what I find ignorant.
Using your quote:
It sounds as if you haven't fully first-hand experienced people with mental health issues in a rehabilitation sense tbh. Because I sure you will change your opinion on assuming people with mental health issues can easily just get over it and don't need any help & support when you have to deal with a broken down person whom can't even muster up the physical or mental ability to even step foot outside their house that day.I sure you will change your opinion on being fine about other people's drug use when you have to deal with a meth head off their dial
OK
So if I have correctly identified that the fix is for the people to sort the issue out themselves by being disciplined and mentally strong then why the sympathy for those failing this??
Life isnt meant to be easy
Life is not fair
It up to you to deal with the issues you face
No one else
Why sympathy for someone who can't do something that the rest of society just deals with and gets on with ??
The ****ers in this country have opportunity
They not born into a 3rd world hell hole with war and violence gripping the country
They just piss weak
Yeah mental health issues such as depression are just excuses from losers.
Climate change just the greenies pulling the hood over everyone trying to ruin the world.
Vaccinations give people autism.
Government mind controls us through fluoride in the water.
What else we got.. Cancer could be cured if big pharma wasn't milking it for all its worth, governments in on it.
9/11, moon landings..
Hang on a bit Member you all wanted us to help Mark Jones fix his addiction to losing.
Hypocrite.
How often in work and home life do you identify fixes to issues but can't actually implement said fixes? I'd estimate this happens multiple times a day in everyones life. The fix to my "lack" of money is to win the lotto, but that's not achievable as easily as I would like to.
I don't wish mental health issues on any person and their supportive friends/family but part of me hopes you have to genuinely deal with this first hand (by first hand I mean either you with the issue or someone close to you that you need to be in and around their lives to help them get thru it) solely so you can have a less ignorant view on it.
OK
