Life is full of dangers and in some ways we are thankful for that, because if it weren't we would become complacent and fat and stupid.

No doubt about that. But should we be responsible for the long term health care of these choices? Sure we do it with lots of other self inflicted disease, but should we draw the line for recreational drug users who screw themselves up and end up costing society in billions in direct and indirect costs?
