Choose to Use

Banning drug use, or requiring treatment as a condition for government assistance, is a violation of constitutional rights.  This is disturbing and harmful to individual user's self-determination, and adding more punishment (kicking them when they're down) is not helpful.

Ministry of Truth Daily Update - 06 Sep 2023 - Actively Dying

 

Actively Dying

A term used for patients whom doctors decree have no hope of a cure, or to ever resume life outside intensive care, which is a drain on society's medical resources.  Often these people are under the "delusion" that death is not imminent, and the Ministry of Love must step in and enforce termination, with compassion and palliative care, of course. The wishes of the patient to try to live are irrelevant, because they are incapable of making these kinds of unbiased decisions about their medical future.
