A Crooked Sham

I recently got a comment spam from a drug rehab outfit in one of my drug war articles.

So naturally I had to say something about it:

Drug rehab is a crooked sham.

If people are taking drugs due to an underlying condition (PTSD from child abuse say) then weaning people from drugs will not cure the "addiction" because addiction is not the problem.

I suppose it pays well "curing" symptoms with the inevitable "relapse" when the symptoms come back.
Then I ask the rehab guy:
Supposing you can do what you say you can do, let me ask a question.

Do you have a program for insulin addicts?
