If there is a market for a drug, there will be crime done for it (for the money). If you're a user, and you're addicted... then the crime is all done for the drug.
Average price for pot is like 20 bucks a gram (yes I am aware that people get better deals)... a 20 shot of good crack is a pretty decent fix for a crackhead.
Price matters once you're addicted, but relatively speaking... drug prices are pretty competitive.
