I’m glad to get away from HilMcBama myself, JP. I very much agree with your thoughts on treatment and really appreciate you sharing your personal experiences in this area. One of my brothers went through a very rough period in his life, and at one point my family believed he’d either wind up in prison or in the ground. It took a collective effort by family, friends, and community (along with mandatory counseling – and a lot of prayer), but he beat his addiction. As a forty-something, he enrolled in college, graduated, and his current employer paid HIM to relocate for his current position. If drugs were legal, would my family have seen the same outcome with my brother? I’m not sure, but I truly believe the chances of a happy ending would’ve been substantially lessened.
