A MORE INNOCENT TIME

To the Editor:

Thanks for publishing Jesse Alt's outstanding letter: "Push for
profits killing kids". I'd like to add that when pure pharmaceutical
grade Bayer heroin sold for about the same price as aspirin, drug
dealers were not giving kids free samples of heroin or any other
types of recreational drugs.

In fact, drug dealers as we know them today, didn't exist. Neither
did drug lords, drug cartels or even so-called "drug-related crime."
