The Dept. of corrections needs to be actually trying to help correct these folks instead of warehouse them, only to be released and reoffend. All over a drug. How about we spend that 4 billion a year we currently waste on the WODs and use it for something that may actually provide some positive results and cost a **** ton less.I dont want to see heroin (and all the others) for sale in the head shops, but it needs to be decriminalized completely, let the addicts out of prison and place them in  rehab or other mental health facilities. If they relapse, at least they are given a fighting chance to get better. They will never get that chance in prison.</blockquote>
