Please Caqnadian goverment im not giving you a way outr of helping, i really beleive that all addiction is caused by poverty and i no you will have a couple of rich kids stand up and say ,,,Im rich and im an addict,,, stupied i didnt say you could not become an addict if your rich. I said addiction is caused in poverty and to take it one more step , its poverty or desperation. now you can see how rich get addicted in desperation. where most people never like to say it, when you look deep you find that in north america we like to tell the rest of the world how great we are doing , So we lie for the corparations who are ripping off the goverment, which we have no goverm,ent because it was purchased by the corperation in the last 15 to 20 years and with there propaganda they have talked us in to this life of despair and told us its better then any third world country and if we dont like it to bad, now do you see why we have our goverment operating safe injection site on the skid row of Vancouver east side, because corperations make money off a solution not a cure. As a recovering addict i no theres a cure for addiction yet they will never give it to us. We must make them do it oir they the goverment will keep bandaging the gashes that should have stiches.. what a system.,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29038780.post-89182988383387652342007-05-30T08:03:00.000-04:002007-05-30T08:03:00.000-04:00If it were true that "the religious right has plac...If it were true that "the religious right has placed 'saving' people from the scourge of drugs as an important American value and tantamount to saving souls," one would think that they would want to spend the 20 million on actually doing so through treatment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
