@7newsaustralia: Illicit drug consumption in Australia is reportedly the highest on record according to recent research. Analysis by the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission looked at wastewater around the country and found growth of major illegal drugs. The report estimates that over 22 tonnes of Methylamphetamine, heroin, MDMA and cocaine were consumed last year. This is a 34 per cent increase in consumption compared to the previous year. #health #healthreport #druguse #wastewater #watertesting

Can you really blame them? Everyone is under pressure. We’re working harder than ever, yet for so many, it feels like we’re getting nowhere. For most young people, owning a home is out of reach without help from their parents. With nothing realistic to save for, many choose to make the most of their youth, because chances are, they’ll be working forever.

That’s what happens when you raise the tax & price of alcohol. The people I know who dabble spend way less than I do on a night out.

6-8 drinks at a pub / nightclub - $150/200, wake up with a headache / hangover, may as well take a couple of pills and buy 2 bottles of water, wake up in the morning like nothing happened…

It would be interesting to see if there is a statistical correlation between tax increases on alcohol and increased drug consumption
