The illegal drug meth has been getting a lot cheaper, due to technological "progress" in manufacturing. I have been telling people this for a while and that the tragic consequence will be more overdoses, but most people are under the (false) impression that drug overdose reflect only deaths of despair rather than a movement along a stable meth-demand curve as a result of increased supply.
Now the evidence of additional meth-involved overdoses is coming in.
See also the 2019 CEA report on the role of prices in drug overdoses.
