I suppose it's a good thing that prostitution hasn't been about for a couple of thousand years then eh?
The majority of working girls are either addicted to heroin or crack and the benefits system doesn't stretch to cover the costs of those habits so they are 'forced' into other ways of making quick cash. Most of the time this is either prostitution or petty theft.
Of course there are some treatment programs but they are pretty haphazard.

I'm also pretty sure most of the men who use prostitutes aren't too bothered about what they might catch, they have their mind on one thing.
Indeed but murder and assault have been around since cave men had rocks to pound eachothers skulls in with so we cannot use that as a valid arguement for legalising murder can we?

As for drug treatment programs, well actual rehab programs are available both in the public and private sector. Public sector treatment programs are a little less accessible though but it is quite possible to visit a licenced and certified GP who has the authority to assess and if necessary prescribe diamorphine in the form of Methadone to act as a substitute for street Heroin. The trouble is of course that the mind of the Heroin addict is so twisted, out of control and devious that even those on "scripts" know how to abuse the system. Often they will get a script to tide them over a tough time or when there is a Heroin drought,as happens from time to time. If they have a script they will often either stockpile it as insurance,use it AND have street Heroin becuase you can never have enough heroin, or sell it on to other desperate addicts. Sometimes doctors prescribe a set dose per day and that is all that is handed out at the clinic. Addicts will fight and argue that it isnt enough for them and try to tranfer guilt and blame by saying they arent getting enough to stop them taking Heroin or to stop them being ill or to stop them committing crimes and therefore, by implication, the GP or clinic is guilty becuase they simply arent giving out enough Methadone.

The bottom line is that many Heroin addicts are just schemers, liars and are past masters at manipulation. They manipulate the system and to a greater extent,they manipulate and poison their families and friends.

Most H addicts do not have the necessary will and strength to get off and so its a waste of time feeding them Methadone and spending money on rehab. They really do have to find their own level. Thats why NHS rehab is not as accessible. Becuase the organisations that run it and work in it,know the mind of the smack head.

There will always be casualties in life.
