>2000 years ago, they didn't have access to pharmaceuticals like percocet, oxycontin, Adderall, or benzodiazepines. They didn't have access to industrial chemical processing to create Amphetamines, or heroin

While written documentation from the Pre-Classical (2,000 B.C.E – 1,000 B.C.E.) and Classical (1,000 B.C.E – 500 C.E) periods conclusively verify the use of opium, cannabis, alcohol, tobacco, and various forms of fungi for religious, medicinal, and occasionally recreational purposes, discoveries in the past decade reveal the presence of psychoactive – commonly known as mind-altering – substances in the human archaeological record long before the practice of written record-keeping.

Peyote buttons containing psychoactive alkaloids found in Neolithic sites in the Rio Grande in present-day Texas, and cocaine metabolites found in mummies in the South American Andes Mountains in present-day Chile further confirm the use of drugs by prehistoric humans for ritualistic purposes.

$3.1 billion (street value) in cocaine seized at Kingston seaport

seizure of over 1,000 pounds of cocaine disguised as Cuban honey

discovered during the security check of a 20-foot container, which contained 18 knitted bags with approximately 450 parcels of cocaine, weighing a total of 538.8 kilograms (1,183 pounds).

The find occurred during Wednesday’s visit of the United States (US) Secretary of State Marco Rubio. Combatting narcotics corruption was a key talking point of Rubio’s visit to Jamaica.

The timing seems quite a convenient coincidence.

 

How Much Does Cocaine Cost? (The Street Prices)

An ounce of cocaine contains 28 grams. Based on the street prices range of $60-$200 per gram, an ounce costs between $1,680 to $5,600.

By the time it’s trafficked into America and adulterated with cutting agents, the price rises to around $13,000-$70,000 per kilogram.

The UNODC report found a kilo of cocaine at wholesale prices in the United States typically costs $69,000.

At $70,000 per kilo (wholesale) and 538.8 kilos confiscated

70000*538.8 = 37,716,000

Wholesale = $37,716,000?

Retail = $3,100,000,000?

 

At “street prices” of $200/gram:

1g =200

28g per oz = 5,600

16oz per lb = 89,600

89,600 per lb (at $200/g)

89,600*1183=105,996,800

 

1,183 pounds at $89,600/lb is about $106 million.

Where does the other 3 billion come from?

(How bad is anon’s math?)
