Shopping voucher plan for addicts

Quote:
Drug addicts receiving treatment should be given shopping vouchers to encourage them to kick their habit, an NHS body has suggested.
The National Institute for Health and Clinical Excellence accepts the idea for England and Wales is controversial.

But evidence from international trials shows modest financial incentives can cut drug abuse by hardened addicts.

Users could get vouchers worth up to £10 at NHS treatment programmes - if tests show they are free of drugs.
Quote from BBC News website

How wrong is this? What else are we goin to give these people?? Nobody forces them to use drugs!!!!!!!!
