Thank you April.

"... people who are obviously too sick to care for themselves writhing on the street, I wonder if this is what can be called liberty."

It's lack of proper care. Unfortunately they probably had very unpleasant experiences if they ever had been in health care facilities - detox or psychiatric facilities. I'm always amazed by the lack of Subutex / Suboxone for these people, especially now with prolonged diffusion injections, once every 6 weeks. Off course it won't work for crack or the "man eating drugs".
