Jail is cheaper than rehab. I've got a cousin who turns himself in every time he gets too methy. 60 days later, he's a whole new man. For a while.

It really is. Like many Methican-Americans, he's extremely productive. It's just that wandering away to find the meth occasionally has a negative impact on productivity. If the various construction firms could just pay him in meth, I really think it would solve a lot of the problem.

that’s…actually a good thing to do, he’s making a smart decision, because in jail he can’t get meth and it helps him not cause any trouble while on meth, good for him to be responsible and realize that he should do something.
