Anyone that can't connect the dots is probably an idiot. Nothing like the U.S. of A involved in producing and trafficking drugs.
Expect a drug epidemic in America in less than 5 years. Expect it to be worse than it already is in China.

It's a myth that the Taliban tried to eradicate Opium production while they were in power. What happened is that they curbed production for a couple of years to drive the price up. They had huge surplusses in storage and so they created a false shortage so that it would be more profitable.
The Taliban still makes money off the drug trade.
If poppy production were legalized and regulated, the Taliban would lose a vital part of their funding.
