re: To what extent is society morally obligated to save heroin addicts?

Also, everyone wants you to believe that the majority of people became addicted through legal means. It started with a surgery/injury that required pain medication and spiraled down from there. Not true. Most addicts started with other shite and exploited an injury/surgery for free (through Medicaid usually) drugs. The ones who truly became addicted due to an injury of some sort have my utmost sympathy. It's just not the majority of addicts. Not by a long shot.
