>>211848604I heard a lot of mixed opinions about drugs in the USA. Some people associate them with the poor and the homeless. Some people associate them with rich kids. I looked up the Pew Research Center statistics and a whopping 50 percent of people have admitted to trying illicit drugs at least once in their life, which is crazy. I've been existentially terrified of American society since this revelation because I have never even drunk alcohol or smoked once in my life.
I am friends with a Hispanic girl (probably the only American who is actually my friend, everyone else is awkward as fuck). She attributes druggie behaviour to both poor people and "rich kids" which is very confusing and it sounds like she's projecting because she is from a supposedly poor family but studying in a rich kid school.
