Sick. Just SICK.

Your appear to be disagreeing with my knowledge and experience based on your different experience. Believe it.

I do not disagree with what you saw. I was suggesting that you over-simplified. You implied that it was rich suburban kids who create the market and keep it going. I still disagree.

It takes money to fuel the drug trade. It ain't just a poor person's problem. The rich kids are a very lucrative market, as are rock stars, musicians, and other wealthy folks who choose to use recreational drugs.

So, sadly, are folks who pour the rent money into a hole in their arms or snort the grocery money up their noses, or guzzle the car payment down their throats.

Exactly my point, Occhi. Drugs are a people problem. And it really isn't about how much money they have. That only affects the quality of the drug purchased.
You can get your alcohol fix with Seagram's Five Star or you can get it with Remy Martin VSOP. Either way, if you drink too much, there is a problem.

The same goes for the designer marijuana. (Sorry if we have confusions over the use of the word 'dope'. Dope = drugs. Marijuana is one kind of drug. Where I learned the phrase, 'all doped up' could mean anything from speed to tranquilizers and all other items in between.) You can get your marijuana in damn near any flavour you want these days, if you are a rock star. The selection is a bit smaller in the high school levels, but the drug is available to rich and poor alike.

And, yes, thank the PTB that they have yet to ban my drug of choice - caffeine. :D
