I have a feeling you would be a bit thirsty without it.
And I remember seeing a documentary on a drug non-treatment program also from, IIRC, Portland. Though they didn't phrase it this way, they simply "wrote off" a bunch of low-level pot smokers. They gave them free housing, food, medical care, cable TV, and just enough money to buy some pot and play video games. There was no attempt at treatment. The people in the program tended to just hang out at the apartment and not get into trouble since they had all they aspired to have and were achieving all they aspired to achieve.
That's a third alternative that has only recently become tenuously politically tenable. Such was not the case in the recent past. I doubt it will go fully mainstream (and by "fully mainstream", I mean legalization not decriminalization) for many, many years.
I have a chemistry degree. Dihydrogen monoxide would be written H2O popularly known as water, ice, steam, or water vapor. Dihydrogen monoxide it up TGTers
I feel the same way. If the gov wants to be involved they should open up a store. Maybe add it to the post office - Dope office/post office and tax the shit out of it. They can sell Cheetos and icees too. Mmmmm. Mix the red one with the coca cola brotha. Peace.
Yep. I would never tell a grown man when I think he's had too much to drink. He's a big boy, he'll figure it out for himself. It may take being thrown out of every bar in the city, losing his family, alienating his friends, etc. Eventually he'll hit bottom and have a choice to make.
That is not reality. Let a guy out the door be it a bar owner/barkeep or a homeowner who thru a party, and the drunk has a DUI wreck, they can and will come for you. At some point in time you have an individual obligation to not look the other way. The problem with many things is that the action taken impact others sometimes to a greater extent. You kill folks in a DUI wreck but you are not hurt is a good example.
A former boss of mine had an undiagnosed condition of some sort. He was locked in his office, on a conference call, when he became unresponsive. The people in other cities tried to call his cell and couldn't get an answer. They called other people in my office, no one had a key to his office, building maintenance didn't want to damage the door to get it open so we had to go way, way up the security org chart to find someone with a key. Once the internal security specialist and a Special Agent got in (about 40 minutes had passed) they found him essentially catatonic, just staring into space.
