Heroin and Opium are bad news. I was surprised to see them on the rise in the northern USA: when I left New Jersey (USA) 14 years ago, heroin was kinda fringe, although people did the heroin-based pharms freely enough, just not the 'big ones'. Now I guess heroin is cheap so it got popular again. Whole small towns with teenagers hooked on it. I guess ppl don't pay attention until it affects white, blond haired kids. == If they do what they want anyway, then whether it's legal or illegal shouldn't make any logical difference. It's not stopping or encouraging them either. == Cigars remained cheap. Vaping has been on the rise. I smoke. I did vape for a year. MUCH MUCH cheaper. I even quit for a bit. But, back to it I am. I could switch to cigars because they're much cheaper but they're stronger (1.5mg instead of 1mg per each) and they stink. Honestly? I probably need some medication to do whatever the nicotene/coffee does for me. But despite grand national insurance ideas, running a small business, I have none and just wait for my fine. So, cigarettes continues. == I personally don't care much what ppl do with themselves but at the same time, I understand the concerns of communities wanting standards and, well, they're not entirely wrong. So, I dunno. ==
