Hypothesis: The "war on drugs" and rampant poverty with minimal to no social safety nets.
America is brutal on its poor. I know cause I grew up on food stamps and expired meat in Chemical Valley during the height of Dupont's C8 dumping.
People are soul crushingly desperate, but many don't even know it doesn't have to be this bad.
- PM_me_your_math 4y agoThis is a joke right? Have you seen how much the USA pays in social safety nets? Also, in the absence of the war on drugs, you'd still have criminal gangs, so no, that has nothing to do with it.
