Cocaine Rehab Treatment: Banning ‘Bath Salts’ Solves Addiction Problem?
The extreme increase in the use of legal “bath salts” to get high just goes to show that an addict will try just about anything to get buzzed when they can’t get cocaine, crack or whatever their drug du jour.
It’s laughable that so many local governments are responding to this problem by banning the the sale of these drug substitutes and penalizing the legal businesses that sell them.
Like that's going to help... An addict who wants to get high and escape the misery of their own life will ALWAYS find a way, and banning each new alternative, legal or not, only fuels the cycle.
Isn’t the real solution to guide a drug addict to resolve their issues that lead to the addiction in the first place? HELLOOOOO!
