I watched the first few minutes, I think I understand the angle. Do you think there is a causal relationship? I have no doubt that homeless people use drugs in a bad way, and I think homeless problems as described are disgusting and wouldn't want to live somewhere like that. But I think the homelessness and drug use are symptoms of the same problem, untreated mental illness, western society generally... people who think that more criminalization of drugs will make this better are living in a dream world. Do they have these problems in Norway and Portugal? I don't believe it's anywhere near like this, and I don't thinks it's because they are tougher on drugs (I'm open to bein told differently though). Drugs are not some evil waiting to corrupt weak people, they are recreation for most people, and a dangerous escape for a few. Pretending they are a cause instead of a symptom doesnt help anyone
