How Drug Dealing Really Works | News on Drugs

When it comes to drugs, we talk a lot about cartels, traffickers, gangs and dealers. But we rarely actually stop and think about what motivates people to sell drugs. How do they get drawn into this trade? What are the different goals and aims they are seeking?

It’s easy to dismiss drug dealers as simply greedy or evil – as politicians, police and journalists often do. But this completely misses the specific pressures and incentives that drive the people who run the drugs trade. And without actually understanding this, there will be no way to ever stop them.

In this episode, we’re going inside the mind of a drug dealer.
