"emphasized the need to treat drug use as a public health issue, a sentiment that is becoming more common as the nation confronts the failure of the war on drugs."

"emphasized the need to treat drug use as a public health issue, a sentiment that is becoming more common as the nation begins to see sufficient numbers of white people affected by drug addiction."
Way back when my friends and I had some fun with oxy for a while and I stopped. I told them they'll end up doing heroin. They did. I sat in a room and watched them do it.
Eventually scabby folk began showing up and they kicked me out of our house for "thinking I am better than them".
The three of them I still know of cleaned up. One owns a house, one has kids, all three have always worked.
Place an age limit of 25 upon entry and you'll be doing a small segment of society a service.

Otherwise you won't be.
