It could, but I guarantee you it's not. In case you haven't heard, there is a very real heroin epidemic in a large part of the country. (largely caused by the over prescription, and then cutting off, via a change in regulations and practices of prescribed painkillers).
But I wasn't being (intentionally) being an asshole when I say "In case you haven't heard." It's being reported in the news, but it is largely a local story, and even in a lot of cases, its kind of like "There's a Heroin Epidemic, it's now affecting white rich kids, nobody knows what to do." I don't know if it is a function people being tired of the drug war or what, but it just seems like there's a quiet epidemic that's tragically killing (and/or negatively affecting) millions of Americans out there.
