There are many people who ought to be locked up who are hurting people in dealing drugs to them. However, let's get realistic with the law. Thanks so much for joining us today. There's a journalist who's name is Micheal Mansing who followed me in working with people from the streets for about 4 years. He was working on a book that has been published.
Today there is more money for law enforcement and less money for treatment.
There are many people that are maintaining employment with regards to this policy of strengthening law enforcement and lessening treatment. Surely there has to be a middle line. Surely we here in the U.S. need to give more priority to people that are hurting. We cannot assume that the situation is better because, as Nightline showed, the situation is not better. The book describes Hotline Cares as a simple answer to a complicated problem.
