There are easier and better ways to accrue power than running for President. Most candidates want to serve the country, trump obviously excluded.

That’s not how any of this works. People with substance use disorders use drugs because their brains have literally changed from drug use, not just because “they’re fun”. People in later stages of addiction aren’t having much fun, they’re barely surviving. If we could just teach them to use moderately, that would be amazing.
In an ideal world we’d get people to stop using drugs entirely. Unfortunately, that’s a tough goal to reach for many people. So we try to get them to use less, or differently (eg smoking instead of IV), so that they’re less likely to die.
Because it makes for a more clickbaity headline
I tried going back for a while, but when I couldn’t connect on VPN, I left again.

Nice try junior

I’ve been in a lot of state and federal prisons in the US and I’ve never seen what you describe. The only inmates that are left alone in cells for days at a time are so extraordinarily violent that they can’t be let out without someone getting hurt. Even they have interaction with health and security staff, but it’s through a window.
Disciplinary segregation in every prison I’ve been in usually have two people to a cell whenever possible (which results in much lower suicide risk) and they’re let out several hours a day if they’re safe to do so. They can and do talk to people in adjacent cells all day long.
It’s still fucking miserable, but it’s not what you think.
In Norway, they get much more out of cell time in segregation as long as they’re safe. There are people that are only let out of cell alone, if they’re really violent.
In the suite with him.
Yes I’ve met the guy in charge of the staff that are with him. 5 staff that rotate every 6 months.
That’s not the point
