Free Needles in Ukraine to Drug Users

description: I bring your attention to this..... Quote: Anti-drug campaigns are being run all over the world, but the message is not getting through. The abuse of intravenous drugs is spreading from the US, western Europe and Australia to just about every other region of the world. Countries now report that the number of injecting drug addicts and the spread of Aids through sharing needles is reaching epidemic proportions in Asia and parts of Eastern Europe. At a conference in Geneva last month scientists, politicians and drug users met to discuss the project. The idea behind 'harm reduction' is to prevent drug addicts from harming themselves and society. It is about prescribing drugs to addicts so they do not have to buy from drug dealers, as well as providing clean needles for addicts to prevent the spread of HIV. Quality of life Conference president Dominic Oiser says society has a moral duty to support the policy. "My moral question or my ethical point of view is that as public health people, as medical doctors, as social workers, we have to find ways to maintain and improve quality of health, quality of life, of individuals and of the society where we are living in and that there is no reason to not choose a method that is effective," he said. Studies show that harm reduction does save lives, as well as improving addicts' quality of life. But critics say that governments should be encouraging them to kick their habit completely, instead of supplying clean needles and methadone. The Director of the International Harm Reduction Association, Pat O'Hare, disagrees. "Giving methadone to drug users - what it does is it stabilises their life," he said. "The evidence is very clear about methadone, it stops people injecting, although some people do inject methadone. It stops them using street heroin, it reduces the amount of sharing of needles and it reduces the amount of crime that those people commit. Now, that sounds to me like a pretty good deal."

description: More needles will mean more sharing, sure you can get them for free, but if people dont want AIDS or disease, then dont share or even use drugs where you inject yourself, their just promoting that they are pro drug and want people to be addicted to heroin.

In fact, is it a really good idea in the long run, open your mind. The entire cost of a druggie impact on society is more then it would to keep them in a cell for a few weeks till they get over it. Most people who take drugs, do crime, though-out that crime, people can get hurt, so there is medical costs, the cost of fixing whatever they just done, like breaking in a car or something, the cost of the police dealing with them, the time for the police to deal with them, then, the court costs, honesty, the list goes on and on. All you need to do is stick them in a room for 6 weeks, not let the fuckers out expect for walks in a closed space and showers. You can feed people for a day on less then 1 pound, depending how cheap you wanna go, yes, there is the cost of guards and the costs of running a building, but that is small to the cost they do on the outside. That's if you wanted a building to house them, myself, I would use a unused ex army base, build a few wooden buildings with small rooms, could even use tents, shit, the little details like that, could be thought off later.

I, actually, agree with him. I doubt most of the "addicts" are truly addicted. It's just a cop-out, so they can skimp on personal responsibility and keep doing what they desire. Either way, you get rid of welfare, let people put whatever they want into their bodies, and then watch as nothing gets worse!

Logic behind this: stopping the spread of blood/sexually transmitted diseases to cut expenses related to said diseases, be it lawsuits or treatments. And it's more likely that they'll start asking for help if they're getting their needles from the government (also chances of some sort of follow-up) than from other junkies, which helps reducing the number of junkies. "omg taxpayers money" - if you turn the junkie into a regular citizen it's like an investment anyway, as that money is likely to come back - keeping in mind that governments are non-profit (supposed to be) organizations that provide services that its population wants. And you're also implying that everyone who does drug doesn't pay taxes. Beyond preventing the spread of diseases I don't know why I'd have to add anything, but I have anyway.

The success rate is debatable, but there have been quite a few who have gotten clean, and are now self-sufficient, hard working people. Except their taking methadone, not the drugs they are addicted to. Bit of a difference. Nothing about handing out free needles promotes or encourages drug use. It's ashame that they can't budget their addiction a little better as to afford the $1-2 a day for needles, but I guess that comes with the disease. If this is proven to hinder the spread of HIV/HepC/etc, then so be it. z310 wrote on Sat, 08 December 2007 03:30 I'm just stating that taxpayers shouldn't have to pay for it.

AIDS isn't a terrorist organization attacking.

That fact isn't perfectly correlated, but it does show that it only helped to support the belief that people shouldn't have to work to earn their money. So where am I going with this? For the most part, people are kind and generous. There are plenty of people willing to give more than their fair share to others, and then there are those of us who are willing to give, though we don't give much outside of our comfort zone. I, also, realize that there are people who will hoard their money, but those are the type of people who will also cheat on their taxes, so forcing them to pay doesn't work that well, either.

My example of natural disasters is just that... an example, and a visible example, at that.

That's something people and private organizations do... help people get off their feet, not just throw checks at them like our government does. When I mention government, I mean legislating actions.

I can afford to have my CDs stolen from me, but that doesn't make the theft any less wrong. "It's okay that they entered my house and stole my jewelry because I can live without it." If you're saying that my explanation of greed was laughable, then so is the justification of theft because I can afford to lose that money. Oh, and you never did address the principle of the fact that it is stealing. I don't want you or my government reprising the fucking role of Robin Hood and his homosexual sidekicks. Stealing from the rich and giving to the poor is still stealing, regardless of what "good" you're doing with the money stolen. I don't care to reach into your pocketbook, so I'd appreciate that you respect mine. I trust Capitalism. Plus, private, non-profit organizations helping out their communities are never going to get corrupted. It's hard to hoard money when you're not allowed to profit from it.

They are more like spending money from Chinese investment companies and the like. And they are doing so in a rate of about 1.52 Billion dollars a day http://www.brillig.com/debt_clock/ Another thing, did you know that your government is indeed stealing your money, and I don't mean by taxes. By creating inflation, they are making more and more money, as in the psycal piece of paper. But by making more of them, they get less rare, and thus less valuable.

Fact: More money isn't the answer. Suggestion: Watch "Stupid in America". Fact: John Stossel > you Fact: Ad hominem gets you nowhere. Fact: For any bit of statistic you can dig up, I can dig up another bit to contradict it. Fact: Financial cost per student is much less three decades ago than it is now. Consider that any halfway decent school has a computer lab, and some have camera systems and metal detectors. Things that simply did not exist three decades ago. Question: Why compare to 1977 anyway? Suggestion: Don't turn this into a battle of statistics. It'll only wear us both out and turn into a contest of resolve. Fact: John Stossel has a silly mustache, and he also not Borat, therefore Me > Him. Suggestion: Ditch this bullshit. Fact: This is the third time I'm asking you to stop pissing in the wind. I don't really care, I could go on for weeks, but this is far from the first time I've had this discussion, and it'd be nice if you offered something new or stfu.

description: Under your account information, you show your homepage as your MySpace profile, and there you claim you attend Mt. SAC. It's only eight miles from me, which is about the same distance as Rio Hondo. It seems to be a good rated school, too, even though it looks like shit. hah

description: I do indeed attend Mt. Sac. I thought you've seen me around and recognized me somehow, which would be slightly creepy. I guess it's actually a pretty good school, as far as Junior Colleges go.
