Except that addicts being cut-off cold turkey tend to be delusional to the point of violence, whether directed at themselves, or others. I'd rather have a 50+ well-fare line than 50+ addicts all crashing and tearing their skin off at the same time. I hear about "social responspility" from both the right and left, but letting that many people crash out that hard in such concentrated numbers is asking for trouble, if not a full scale riot.

Not only would this add to the cost of a program that is I feel is admistered at the wrong level of government (I think it ought to be left up to the member-states), but would add to the size/scope of that government at all.

And face it, people would come up with a way to cheat, this government program.

A cracked-out government program that is choked up with red tape and buecracy will probably not be cured by more levels of red-tape and buerocracy.

spell check.
