coincidence?Posted By mike welsh |
Been hearing a lot lately on the rise of heroin usage in the US. This seems to be due to several factors: Oxi and vicodin are getting more restrictively regulated, crack is getting expensive and its users seem to die off faster than the replacement rates can meet, etc. BUT mostly because heroin is getting very cheap and widely available in increasingly better quality.
i wonder why?
We are currently occupying Afghanistan, who's cottage industry, Opium Poppy farming, is enjoying a resurgence.
i seem to remember the last time heroin enjoyed so much popularity and availability was when the US was entangled in SE Asia and Laotian opium was pouring in.
What are anyone's thoughts as this is happening again? With the current War on Drugs at a fever pitch, how is this cr@p getting in? Who's bringing it in? Who's benefitting?
Thank you,
