Now.. moving on to how to feed the homeless..
Excuse me, but I just finished laughing my ass off.
My post this morning posited that in order to attack drug addiction we, essentially, make heroin lethal and kill the addicts. No more addicts, and no one but the galactically stupid becoming addicts.
Classic win/win.
Sadly, Big Red was very upset with this idea:
"This is a pretty shocking post. I know many on the right do not like Insite, but suggesting we poison addicts is beyond the pale."
Really Big Red?
Shocking?
Beyond the pale?
Perhaps this is not the best time to suggest you read up on social plan #2 suggested to assist the plight of the hungry, a modest little proposal by my good friend, Jonathan Swift.

I'd like to point out that one of the major defense talking points on Insite is that it costs less for "harm reduction" than otherwise. In your case, you have suggested "harm elimination" which costs much less than the other two solutions.
Brilliant!
I love a modest proposal.
It's a good litmus test for seeing how people think and for challenging people's assumptions.
A round or two of 'hot doses' of heroine would solve many problems.
Bet the same people who attack you don't have the same problems for 'assisted suicide' for the sick and troubled.
