I would enjoy seeing statistical break downs of these people. I hope some are genuinely getting help they need. but I do fear... How many are on marijuana which is now practically legal? How many are using the ‘treatment’ to gain access to powerful drugs, like Benzos and valium, that are handed out like candy and very addictive? How many are getting medical marijuana cards just because they can?
It is the perfect model. Toss a net out, treat those that actually need it (a small percentage) and then give handouts to the rest. That way, the program “helps those in need”. A win-win for votes.
