Drugs

 

Drugs are the symptom, but they are not the problem.

What we should do is solve the problems that mean that people take to drugs. Perhaps, that is a lack of education, a lack of good jobs for young people or any number of a number of factors. I've never seen a serious survey on the whys of drugs, but there is any number of statistics about what drugs do to people.

Take Karen, who was on the radio this morning. She became a prostitute. Why did she do that?

Drugs will only disappear, when there is no need for them.

I've never taken illegal drugs, but I will admit that when I've been unhappy in the past, I've taken to the bottle. Perhaps, if I had had access to drugs, I would have taken them.
