By the way... Does anyone on this forum own a Poppy Field?
Ha, hell I needed that
and your so right we should be moving right along leaving those behind who can't stand up when they're wrong - well I tried to rhyme, it's late and I need to find a puppy park fast
oh poppy field, my mistake, except they get caught in your teeth lol
Sleep well everybody!
XOThanks for all the comments.
Firstly, I have not deserted my forum, I went to bed.
I did not write the original post to start a war.
I was not getting at recovering addicts, I actually respect them for helping themselves.
My main point is about the people who have contributed nothing to society and are not willing to change their ways, why should we support their habit and let them ruin our society.
YES some doctors and lawyers are drug addicts and alcoholics, I have no issues with this as they contribute to society.

I beg to differ with the original poster. Not all drug and alcohol users, otherwise known as addicts, are worthless. Get real, man. Your opening statement sounded bias. I work with substance abusers regularly and yeah, I do see some cases of lack of motivation being the primary cause of the abuse. But a lot of these folks have a dual diagnosis too....both substance and Mental disorders. So whoa up a minute.

It is a social ill, we must help them, understanding why are they doing it, and their prob is comlicated enough, if we just kill them for example, are we solving the problem, no, there will always be cases like these,

The amount of resources put into alcohol and drug abuse is scandalous and placing great strains on our economy.
The vast majority of these people contribute absolutely nothing to society and have claimed state benefits all there life.
Drug users are happy to go to jail as there is usually a plentiful supply of heroin there and it is no deterrent to them. Methadone does not work and only supplements there drug habit.
PLEASE COMMENTyou take aspirin ? drink coffee? or antacid?

Yes I do drink coffee but that is not what I am on about. I am talking about drug addicts and alcoholics tat do not want help, why are we supporting them when they have made a personal choice to use a substance. I have no issues with people who want help or addicts that do not impact on society in a negative way, I am from Scotland and there is a massive drink problem here but we just throw money at it with no real results.
I also do not believe that addiction is an illness it is a personal choice that the individual makesand further more you with no hubs questioning the contributions of others just kills me. this drug addict and alcoholic has 19.when you write more than i have. ill hand you the stone myself. then you can feel free to throw it . your off to a bad start. but welcome to this venue anyway .

I am not questioning any ones contribution, I am just putting my point across and being slated for it, I am saying that the people that contribute NOTHING to society do no deserve unlimited help
And thanks for the welcome

I think that the programs are important because they really do help people that want to get better.
There are people out there who don't want to get better (for whatever reason) and they'll just hold the rest of us back, but that's how it has to be I guess.- 92

What an honorable response, aware. Thanks.
Do you, Cabalacus, really believe that people go to their own graves, hurt their children, end up institutionalized or insane by choice? - 96

PLEASE COMMENTDrugs are out of control in the U.S. More help on our boarders would be a plus, but there would be an outcry of RACISM. This PC crap is killing us.
