that was a decent documentary. Made this place look pretty fucked up, though. I like how they talked about alcohol like it's a drug (which it is of course), because that shit just makes some people absolutely psychotic.
I guess there's a pretty big hard drug subculture here, although I didn't really recognize it before I moved to where I live now. My roommate used to be a speed addict and was pretty heavily involved with the local methamphetamine trade. Another one of my friend's roommate is a heroin junkie, although he holds down a job and is a functioning addict. Hard drugs are surprisingly really accessible here, just as much as anywhere in the continental USA I've been. Ultimately I wouldn't say the drug problem here is any worse than a ton of other places in the US and elsewhere in the world, though.
