What Tyler Durden doesn't tell you is that 260 million dollars were allocated for treatment, housing and employment help, naloxone distribution and other services to help people escape addiction and what happened? Foot dragging happened, and little to no effort was put into actually assisting people in trouble. Very little of the allocated funds were used for their intended purpose, cops got no additional training (despite what pro-cop liars will tell you), aside from "write a ticket".
What a shocker that decriminalizing and doing nothing else didn't work out well. The solution? Go back to the war on drugs as if that worked.
