I guess if they don't complete the treatments there's not much you can do. But it costs much less and it can be tried and tried again for much less.. Jail isn't going to do anything but cost us all more money I can tell you that.

Well, I guess we will probably have to agree to disagree on this. I think we need to give these people treatment and try to fix the problem so that people who have legit problems can hopefully fix it. But I feel that if there are not real consequences for people's actions they will have very little reason to stop their behavior. If we tell them, "You need to go to treatment and if you fail at it, I guess we will just give you another chance and another chance and another chance." People that fail rehab more than a couple of times tend to need something major to happen to them before they realize that they do need help and take getting better seriously. I would just rather that something major be something like going to jail for a period of time or some kind of hammer brought down on them to jar them into action then for that thing to be that they killed or crippled someone with their car.
