The pres is in the spotlight all the time and only a figurehead. The CIA doesn't have these limitations.
Yup. Iran Contra. People seem to forget that it's public knowledge that the CIA was bringing heroin back from Vietnam in soldier's body bags (that wasn't just some movie chit in American Gangster).

The CIA. Watch the documentary American Drug War: The Last White Hope
The director of the CIA actually went to a local town hall-style meeting in a south-central gym, sat at one of those 4x8 fold out tables, and told a group of people in the community that the CIA had 'nothing to do with' infesting the inner city with crack.
When the CIA director shows up at some run of the mill community meeting with fold out chairs just to proclaim innocence, there's something suspicious about that,Cynical Optimist, Extreme Moderate

To those saying turning a key into $50k and blah blah blah. STFU you all seem stupid. Stretching something or buying at wholesale is a total different thing. ******* and crack may be simular but, you are changing the properties of the drug. Different side effects, different everything. Just like the average weed dealer isnt out there making hash or BHO oil. wtf

LOL, go full potatoe much?
How do you make CRACK????
You use *******. I never said it was the same thing, tardclops. But you use X$ of coke to make product that you can sell for 10X$.
(Now, I used algebra there.)
I don't know what the price of street drugs are right now but back then crack was a far cheaper drug made from *******. The duration of the high from crack was also much shorter than the high of *******.
But you really missed the point. If I can eat a 5 dollar hamburger and sell my poop for 100 dollars, I'm going to do it. They are not the same thing but they are similar.
No one in this thread though crack and ******* were/are the exact same thing.R.I.P. Hector Bluntz

Nobody mentioned Gary Webb, he wrote an article exposing the CIA bringing in drugs in to South Central, Dark Alliance. He killed himself a few years later, two gun shots to the head.
From wikipedia
Webb was best known for his 1996 "Dark Alliance" series of articles written for the San Jose Mercury News and later published as a book. In the three-part series, Webb investigated Nicaraguans linked to the CIA-backed Contras who had allegedly smuggled ******* into the U.S. Their smuggled ******* was distributed as crack ******* in Los Angeles, with the profits funneled back to the Contras. Webb also alleged that this influx of Nicaraguan-supplied ******* sparked, and significantly fueled, the widespread crack ******* epidemic that swept through many U.S. cities during the 1980s. According to Webb, the CIA was aware of the ******* transactions and the large shipments of drugs into the U.S. by Contra personnel. Webb charged that the Reagan administration shielded inner-city drug dealers from prosecution in order to raise money for the Contras, especially after Congress passed the Boland Amendment, which prohibited direct Contra funding.Member of the Raider Nation

A key would bring 50k easy, that's 50$ a gram
you could stretch it, cook it up, take it to the suburbs or areas where powder sells for more than 50$ for a single gramDisregard Everything, Acquire Aesthetics Crew

^. And this isn't the ****ing 80s. Now the **** is being cut down to like 80-70% before even arriving to Miami, etc. Then after about 4-5 more deals later of it being stepped on it will eventually make it to your local hoodrat dealer who will be selling you (.8) bag grams of coke for 50-100$ and the **** you are snorting is usually about 10-20%. People with good connects can get like 50% power for 1800 an once. I swapped to crack because of this because crack you know what you are getting. You can tell if its that snap ****. But thank god ive gotten off of it.

I haven't bought ******* in a long time, the last time I bought any it was 40 a gram, that was before the prices went through the roof. I know it's probably a lot more expensive now and I'd imagine that in Canada it's more expensive than the states but a kilo was probably a lot cheaper back then too
