Re: towards a solution
A general rule of thumb
​
Any empirical evidence for this rule of thumb?

Re: towards a solution
Currently drugs cost folk money. This policy would ensure drugs cost no money. A current impediment to consumption
Can you show any evidence that the fact drugs cost money is an impediment? If it was such an impediment why is drug dealing such a lucrative profession? Oh yeah, people steal and kill to get money for drugs,
​
Yes I can see how that is much better for society.

Hospitals
And I am not completely familiar with how they are run in the USA, but in the USA, I don't think they are run under the government the way Police & Fire are.
You need to get out to rural America. Corporations can't make money off of hospitals in a lot of small towns so there are many publicly owned rural hospitals. If the local taxpayers didn't pay taxes to fund the hospital in the town I live in the nearest emergency would be 45 mins away. I imagine it is like this in a lot of the US
