Well, drug and alcohol treatment programs aren’t schemes to rip off people. The thing is, it takes money to build a treatment center.

Treatment costs much because there are still medications to buy as well as people to pay for the services that they render for the patients’ betterment. Besides, a thousand dollars is nothing compared to the life of a person that treatment gets to save.
