PROP. 36 WAS BASED ON WHOSE WALLET GETS FAT

I love it! When Prop. 36 came out I knew it would never work. I was
completely shocked to see it pass. I guess it shows what money can
buy. Problems, problems and more problems. I don't care what anybody
says. No judge, court or drug program can make a drug addict quit.
Only the addict himself/herself can, when he or she has had enough
insanity. Jail time is the best for some. Prop. 36 was based on money
and whose wallet was going to get fat. Who's going to be accountable
now.
