As a Jew, I think they should be behind bars and their wealth confiscated to fund treatment programs.
Anecdotally a friend who travelled a lot in India told me that most Rickshaw drivers are take heroin. It wouldn't really surprise me as it looks like a damn tough life that they have.
I used to be addicted to heroin and honestly, the drug is amazing. The mental and physical clarity it gives you is downright unbelievable. For me the problem was never heroin itself (I worked harder on it, I was less anxious and happier) but the cost and the risk of it’s illegality. If heroin was the same price per pound as other agricultural products like beans or flour, I don’t think I would ever quit. For me the p…
Somehow it didn't turn out so well. (Google 'opiate epidemic'.)
Indian medical system is something that one can't even imagine living in the Western world. The vast majority of 'doctors' are actually quacks. I learned that my maid used to go for weekly 'steroid shots' to some quack in her neighborhood. Her reasoning was that everybody did so. I offered to pay her to visit a regular doctor but she refused. She was also significantly malnourished and would drink sugar solution occa…
There is a guy I met in gym who was asking me why I take protein shakes when they are so expensive.
He told me he takes some protein injected into bloodstream which is more effective and produces better results than fake optimum nutrition protein I get from Amazon.
So I asked him to show that protein, guess what, it was anabolic steroids. Sure did it produce amazing results and he thinks side effects are because Rahu in his Kundali.

> People who haven't done drugs don't really have the right to talk about drugs. This is an absurd argument, obviously. This would be like saying that pedestrians hit by a car don't really have the right to talk about regulating cars because they can't understand the power that you feel when you drove your car. Drugs do not affect only to people doing drugs.
When on earth have we had a conversation about regulating drugs? Yes, cars should be banned. People who have sex make loud noises ... so sex should be banned.
A few lines above, when you put as example "would be like trying to make laws against sky diving without experiencing sky diving". Making laws = regulating
I never talked about banning sex, or cars, I said that even people that do not drive can (and will) have a word about regulating car use, in their own interest, and also for the public interest. Same for drug use.
Regulating is not the same as banning, so please don't put words in my mouth trying to reduce the conversation to absurd. Is a cheap trick.

Highlighting Jewish heritage when it is not relevant in this context, thus insinuating that it is relevant in this context, is anti-semitism.

Drugs are not regulated but are illegal. If you don't understand the difference between regulating and illegality ... you are so intelligent.

Is it? I have seen Youtube videos mentioning large numbers of soldiers in Vietnam being addicted and being able to come off relatively easily when they got their normal life back. (Saying that one of them might be one of the two Kurtzgesagt videos that they decided to remove afterwards).
Youtube videos aren't a source of truth or science.
