    Historically, America’s biggest drug problems come from wherever the government is fighting a war.

    During Vietnam, heroin heated up because it was easily available over there, and they set up a smuggling operation.

    During the 80s, the crack cocaine epidemic exploded when cocaine became super cheap because of the Iran-Contra war, where cocaine was easily available.

    Now we’re going to be in South America again, so count on more cocaine issues, and it sounds like there is South American heroin. So the 2030s should be fun in America.

    If we decide to fight in Mexico, maybe we’ll get some cheap, but high quality Mexican weed. I’m not hoping for a new Mexican-American War, but I’m up for cheap weed.
