but I'd much rather have it be used to help people rather that the current system which harms us all. So you would be fine with a socialist without the WOD, than a Republic with one? I oppose the WOD as well, but that is a bit extreme. I'll take home scans, and no knock drug raids over complete socialism ANYDAY

You snipped the sentence before that one that said I oppose confiscating the money of hard working people to give it to screwups. I'd prefer we let private organizations handle rehab, but if the government must do something I'd like them to help rather than hurt as they do now. Rehab programs are a far cry from complete socialism (which I absolutely oppose since I believe it encourages people to do nothing with their lives and live off the government dole.) rehab would be far cheaper and doesn't kill americans like the raids.

Rehab would not be all. Rehab is what I want now. What the addicts would need is MONEY and support to live. They wouldn't be able to hold jobs, they would need medical attention, they would want COMPLETE socialism, not just gov backed rehabs. Plus you act as if millions of innocents die in drug raids. This is absolutely false. I oppose them because they are unconstitutional, but I know many DEA agents. They are VERY VERY careful (the ones that care about their job) to get the right guy.
