I’m sure that therapists and the companies that provide the therapies could find a way to make it much more expensive if it were under a federal mandate.

Who said anything about private entities? It’s time we as a culture wake up to the fact that in many cases, the government is far more efficient than any private entity could ever be, because they don’t have to produce profits. I don’t think it has to be perfect, it just has to be better than prison. Almost anything is better than prison as a drug treatment program, and you would have to make monumental effort to make it cost more than prison.
