Sadly, we have our trouble makers too. But I think the number is far lower than booze.

Granted I'm referring to U.S. welfare, Europe may not have the problems we have here.
Although it could be argued that the reason we have people on welfare who sit in a shithole and smoke weed constantly, and have no money, is because of the prohibition causing the price to be so high. If it were legal, it would be cheap. In fact, this goes for any illicit drug. If coke heads could get coke legally and cheap, it's likely that they wouldn't be selling all of their possessions to get a fix.
