Task 1. Answer the questions based on the text below.

The government should Provide Rehabilitation Program

for Drug Users

Drug users are actually ill people who need help.

Rehabilitation is one of the main things they should get.
Instead of punishing drug users in prisons, the government
should provide rehabilitation for them.

Most users are actually victims of persuasive peddlers and they suffer from consuming
the drugs. Therefore, by rehabilitating them, we are actually helping them out from
traps, which they might accidentally step on.

If we only arrest drug users and send them to jail, this doesn't solve the problem as drug
users will still be addicted unless proper rehabilitation is imposed to them.

Providing rehabilitation programs for drug users and forcing them to participate in the
programs is better than only arresting them and doing nothing to their illness. Only
drug dealers, traffickers, and wholesalers should be imprisoned.
