BUILD A CAMP FOR DRUG ABUSERS

Our prison system is overcrowded and the drug problem has contributed
greatly to this. Why can't the state build a camp or a prison to
accommodate drug users convicted of nonviolent crimes?

Our laws should be very strict for drug dealers. They are the same as
murderers. If the laws were strict enough it would stop a lot of them.
They destroy young lives for money. They destroy families.

Our society becomes decadent. Anything goes for a hit. Don't get in
their way or you might get hurt or killed. Families don't know how to
handle the problem. There is no real help for drug addicts except prison.

As soon as drug users are out of prison they are under great pressure
to pay restitution (which they should). Why not let them pay while
they are in prison by letting them deal with public life while
incarcerated? The system can strengthen them day by day.

We need to focus on a solution before society destroys itself. It will
take all of us to overcome this destructive problem.
