#2 The value of opium is tied to the land and those who control it. The value of the synthetics, which are so cheap that the world is awash in them, is their ability to break down societies. And where do most of the synthetics come from? Where are they shipped to? Story in that somewhere...

#4 The synthetic opoids AFAICT are shipped to the USA courtesy of the US Postal Service. And AFAICT nothing is being done at the postal service level to interfere with this process. Is there any other info on this?
