It would be difficult to imagine that anybody living in North America today isn't aware of the proliferation of illegal drugs and substance abuse that currently exists in our society. Billions of dollars are lost in the workplace every year and countless families face the devastation of virtually losing their children. How do we even begin to measure the cost in terms of human suffering? Sadly, we prognosticate that the problem isn't going away in our lifetimes. Illegal drug usage exists because a substantial number of people become 'hooked' both physically and emotionally. Illegal drug use is often like many diseases we encounter today in that the disease can only be arrested or controlled - not cured in many cases.
