Those comments in the thread have interesting points. 350/g in 1980 compared to what it costs now. (I used to pay 60/g around 2010) https://www.businessinsider

Those comments in the thread have interesting points. 350/g in 1980 compared to what it costs now. (I used to pay 60/g around 2010) https://www.businessinsider.com/us-cocaine-prices-change-2016-10#while-cocaine-prices-in-the-us-have-varied-some-year-to-year-they-have-held-relatively-stable-since-declining-from-highs-in-the-1980s-1 https://www.businessinsider.com/us-cocaine-prices-change-201... Thinking about it more, I guess you need to clarify if a boomers today use more drugs or was drug use higher in the 60s,70s,80s then in 00s and 10s. Other stuff I searched suggested boomers in the 10s are hit hard by opioids

> boomers today Drugs are increasingly unkind to the bod the older you get, so I’d imagine it’s the latter. For the record, I paid about 125/g in the mid nineties. I’m sure someone’s made a chart of this somewhere. I remember High Times magazine or Cannabis Culture used to have a spot price table in most issues based on numbers submitted by their readership. Would make an interesting graph. I don’t tend to trust LE valuations of drug prices because their incentivized to inflate them on capture and deflate them on selling risk.
