Burglaries, robberies, muggings, car theft, shoplifting............the dope heads have to get their money from somewhere.
This question sounds like a research paper topic.
Take a look at some comunities heroin destroyed in the 70s their is no jobs nothing.people will rob steal for their fix they destroy their community with drugs and with crime from the drugs.so does locking them up in prison work or does rehab work that is the ten million dollar question
Dear Anon,
If this is indeed a research paper for you, be sure you include the loss of the creativity, productivity, and community participation that occurs when people's lives are siphoned off into substance abuse.
