Lack of access doesn't address the underlying issues that create drug problems. If you don't get treatment almost everyone will relapse when they are no longer incarcerated.

You can be "clean" though withheld access, but unless you deal with your underlying issues you won't be able to stay clean when access is returned.

A good sobriety program in involves counseling and therapy, but counseling and therapy both need cooperation to be effective.

I don't know about you (or them), but I plan to vote for the most Progressive candidate available, sometimes that will mean a corporate Dem that I will have to harass to get anything done. I will not however be giving money to the Dems as a whole unless we Tea Party them.

No, Do vote, vote in every election, figure out what you need to do to access the primaries (for everything, not just president or congress) and find the most progressive candidate on offer and vote for them.

We Tea Party them!

We've been fighting like hell. Last week there was a glimmer of hope. The #SelloutCaucus and that weak ass Schumer just flushed it all down the toilet.

So infuriating!! It's time to prepare for the spending #blackout. Let's hit them where they care: corporate profits. Stock up on essentials, spread the word and get ready for Nov25-Dec 2 and beyond. www.blackoutthesystem.com

How about this, No for-profit medical establishments, prisons, or schools at a minimum. I can see ways to make that work.

As far as any data I can find Ibotta does not sell personal data, rather aggregate market data.

And does give actual cash back, I had to go though PayPal to use this feature but it does work.

If you sign up, and use my referral code, we both get cash back, and I get a rebate on a whole turkey!

Anyway my point was that just because you are willing to spend more to buy something quality doesn't mean you can afford an extra $100 on top of the already high price.

I have tried, they can't repair these types of shoes, and I wear though the sides of the shoe *because* of my weird shoe size.

Also as to your examples of coats, they are made of plastic so they will last forever in a landfill when they are discarded, and even beyond that aren't quality.

For example: I have a weird shoe size, so I have to buy specialty shoes from an orthopedic suppler to get ones that fit right. My shoes (which last around a year) often break a $120 dollars.

Just because I can save up to buy a pair of shoes doesn't mean I can cover an extra $100.

Quality clothing has gotten really expensive, and we don't know the details of the coat or the child.

Is it a Fair Trade, heavy duty, winter coat made of biodegradable materials? I could see that *easily* costing $150 even for a kids coat.

Is the "kid" in question a teen who is in adult sizes?

Who can't find the Mitten state! It is the MITTEN STATE! It is one of the few on the east of the Mississippi I am 100% confident I could find on an unlabeled map! (That and Florida).

Africa is not alone though! While I could probably do better with most of the Northern hemisphere, I probably couldn't label a map of South America either.

I am not confident I could label all the US states correctly (particular all the little fiddly ones in New England) and I live in the US!

I am pretty sure I *could* find ancient Mesopotamia on an unlabeled map, but I actually studied that (and the Tigris and Euphrates rivers are pretty distinctive).

I have never studied modern geography though!
