Suggesting that this is RFK’s “best idea” implies that this set up addresses the problem of drug abuse better than existing established rehab programs.

If that’s what you think my post is saying, then I’m not sure how you came to that conclusion. His best idea is still a bad one, but it’s at least built on a foundation that has been proven to work, which is rehab. When I said it was his best idea, that wasn’t me praising him or implying that it would actually do anything more for drug addiction than current state sponsored or private rehab programs do. It’s just closer to hitting the mark than his other schemes would be to making Americans healthier.
