In 1839 England went to war with China because the Chinese government seized 3 million dollars woeth of opium. England was making huge profits from selling opium to the Chinese people. Drugs ar big business. A lot of people have become rich from drug sells.

This is a bit dated to be thought of as a viable source for information.This serves better as a tool for teaching history than for educating people about intoxicating substances.

Wow, you Europeans really know how to party. From Opium, to Morphine, to Heroin, you guys even came up with such bright idea as Communism. You guys truly are the "chosen ones" of Mankind.
