I don't know what good solutions exist or even if there ARE any good
solutions. The documentary I saw on safe supply which showed it
caused many negative consequences, especially making increasingly
younger children junkies, made me strongly oppose that approach. I
resent like hell seeing public money being spent on people who
contribute nothing to society and who use the money we give them to
get and stay high while everyone else works their asses off to let
them live that lifestyle. This profoundly undermines society as a
whole by giving too many people the idea that it is just fine to get
high all the time at public expense.
Well one thing for sure - my meds cost me roughly $150-200 / month
beyond what the medical system pays for (I haven't filed my taxes yet
to have the complete number for 2023 - but Canadian income taxes
aren't due till 04/30 so no panic yet) so I tend to react extremely
badly when I hear of these folks getting non-prescription drugs for $
0.00 given what I'm paying and I'm well aware what I do pay is well
below US rates for the same medications
As a taxpayer I'm happy to pay big bucks to get those who want to get
clean clean, but I bitterly resent.paying a nickel for support
services for those who just want to go on getting high day after day
until the music finally stops.
It's not as if I obtain pleasure from doing the ones I do (all of
which are prescribed by a GP or specialist) after all and its
certainly not something I do for fun. (My cache is literally arms'
reach from my monitor with the only non-prescribed drugs there being
tylenol and some vitamins)
