Prison/Drugs

Our society views people with drug problems as criminals and put them in jail instead of a medical facility to get them help. We should be focusing on getting people help instead of just abandoning them inside a cell and after they get out, we wait for them to come right back because they were never helped and fell back into their last patterns. So why doesn't our society help out these people and that way we could have less people in jail and less drug users out on the streets. Also the system favors those with money way more then the poor. How is it fair that people with money get away with more things because they can afford lawyers but poor people cant afford a lawyer. On top of that they get heavier chargers just by where they live because they are usually by a public place. Our society needs to think about how we treat our "criminals".
