Fentanyl is taking over as the main drug pollutant in America’s waterways. 20 years ago people in America spent more money on illegal drugs than on new cars, just barely. Now they do by a factor of two or three. Shows you how apathetic the country has got. When all those tens of trillions in free Covid welfare checks runs out, maybe things will improve, but highly unlikely.
Rand Corp. estimates about 150 billion a year is spent on illegal drugs in the USA, with 30 billion at least going to Meth. However, their figures are way off, it’s likely many times that number.

Illegal drugs, such as methamphetamine, can also accumulate in our waterways. Whether illicit drugs alter fish behaviour at levels increasingly observed in surface water bodies was unclear , says Pavel Horký from the Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, Czech Republic. He and his colleagues, from the same university and the University of Southern Bohemia in ?eské Bud?jovice, Czech Republic, decided to investigate whether brown trout (Salmo trutta) are at risk of addiction from illegal methamphetamine in their waterways and discovered that they are.
