Hence why I said "majority" and not all.



Very low percentage of addicts can overcome and get better....but for most its a lifelong struggle.  Having support like family and good friends help...sadly majority of those addicts on the streets don't have family who care for them (or even cared for them while they were growing up, and that is a huge impact on their lives).



I wish there were programs that could help the homeless addicts but provided they have the support, its very difficult for them to achieve...unless a person come from nowhere and decides to help them.

Quote from: "easter bunny"I would send them to a mental hospital/detox center where they can get the treatment they need. Living on a sidewalk is not something you would do unless you were wanting help. Anyone who thinks a drug addict has control of his will doesn't understand the nature of addiction.


Yeah, it's probably a good idea to detox them before their organs are harvested, especially if you need a liver.

Sorry Berry Sweet, I misunderstood what you meant..



You made some good points about the symptoms of the disease.

You're not alone. I think almost everyone would like to have a little of that every now and then.

I would not at all Renee..



I would not want to even think about life without my husband and children.

I don't want to think of a permanent life without my family but life without bills would be nice.

Actually, my income tax return was very easy to do.

I just did the exact same thing I did last year, but with this year's numbers.

I always end up getting an income tax refund (usually CPP overpayment) once a year, plus low income tax credits once every 3 months.

Life is so easy for you underemployed, unskilled, unambitious white trash types. ac_tongue
