Ha, the sad part is that meth use will increase inversely relative to the average households buying power. Meth is always affordable... just need to rip the wires out of your houses skin.

I first noticed the raw material value oddity was years ago when a bank was trying to sell me on a saving product, the return was below inflation and therefor useless. So I looked it up and if I bought a large amount of lead, and put it in my yard the lead cube would (even with the lead being loss into my grass) be worth enough after 10 years to give a better return then what the bank was offering.
