Default Re: Tax Dollars at Work

...wow. I had no idea they cost so much. Thanks for the link, it was very informative [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I do agree that this is safer and better for the alcoholics, and more likely to result in a possible recovery. I still have a problem with rewarding incompetance and punishing productivity, and while I would like a system that caps the amount of municipal resources the alcoholic is entitled to, if this is in fact more cost effective than the current system, then I guess it's a step in the right direction.

My only real concern is its potential to demand an increase in funding, and I don't think that's unreasonable.
