How would you change the government structure to make it better?
I dont think you really understand the nature of addiction rebgirl. If you want a true to life portrait of what addiction is really like you should read the kevin smith blog series "me and my shadow". It's about Jason Mewes and his heroin problem and it is actually a really good read and especially good if you are a fan of Kevin Smith's movies.
The View Askewniverse Message Board :: View topic - PART 9 of "Me and My Shadow" now up at MBAL!
You would also be surprised to find out that kevin smith, the man behind the clerks and jay and silent bob movies, is one of the best writers around today.
I also think this is even better at depicting drug addiction than Requiem for a Dream, at least to Kevin Smith fans who know the people in this story so well.

I know what addiction is I assure you. I was locked up with heroin addicts, I watched them writhe on the floor shaking in cold sweats, puking wishing for death. Ive watched them fail over and over when I was in group homes. Its horrible. Ive seen friends waste away with meth, getting it from their parents home made labs. Hell, I even watch Intevention on A&E. Its a horrible thing. Its why id never touch anything than pot. But I will look into that link, Jay and Silent Bob crack me up.

Oh, and every person on welfare isnt a crackhead. The percentage is actually quite low. We definitly shouldnt get rid of it.

Well if you like Jay and Silent Bob you should definitly read it. It shows another side of it than you get to see on intervention, after reading about what happens to Jay i doubt you would want these people to have triple sentences. It usually isnt their fault. Sometimes its a genetic thing where people are just draawn to these substances and feel that they have to try it and it isnt their fault when they get hooked. Anyway, read the thing, if anything its entertaining and really good read. I was actually extremely surprised at how good of a writer kevin smith is.

I wouldnt touch anything other than pot either (except maybe shrooms or very little maybe acid) but I have this plan that when I'm really old and am probably dying im gonna try all the hard drugs i I have a lot of money so I could at least know what its all about before i die. I think thats what the grandpa in little miss sunshine did.

1) No everyone on welfare isnt a crackhead but so many do abuse the system.
2) Yeah it IS your fault. You know the damn effects it can have. Just like you know that shooting yourself in the leg can kill you, dont assume that your so different that it wont effect you.

Everyone isnt perfect and can think rationally about drugs. SOme people have addictive personalities and since the day they are born they feel like something is missing. ANd when they find out about drugs its like they have to have it without thinking about the consequences.

What about peopl whos mom did hard drugs when they were pregnant? They are automatically addicted from the day they were born. How about the person that accidentally tried a hard drug once, and then they are addicted forever. Thats what happened to Mewes. Read about Mewes and you will know its not as simple as you think. Its a true story.
