| 27. Street drugs are never cheaper than legit purchases |
|
Pain medication goes for a buck a milligram regardless if it's oxycodone, hydrocodone, codeine, fentanyl etc. When bought legit it's about 1/10 of that so please spare me the BS.
The homeless should e dealt with by family or taxpayers not coin tossers.
