Drug Threat Assessment 2010

Mexican Drug ThreatThe government has issued its annual report, so which drugs are they most worried about and where are they coming from?

Are more drugs than ever available in the U.S.? The recently released National Drug Threat Assessment 2010 report says that illegal drugs are increasing on American soil, thanks in great part to the expanding Mexican drug cartels.

"The trafficking and abuse of drugs affects everyone," said Michael T. Walther, director of the Justice Department's National Drug Intelligence Center, which produced the report. "The economic cost alone is estimated at nearly $215 billion annually."

While drug violence may be hurting the tourist trade in Mexico, the business of heroin, marijuana and methamphetamine is a booming business, with more flowing across the border than ever before. And those Mexican organizations aren't staying south of the border, they're operating in every part of the U.S. They're also expanding more into rural and suburban areas and working with U.S. street and prison gangs to further expand distribution.

While U.S. and Mexican governments are working hard to combat the problem, making arrests and banning substances used in the production of these drugs, government officials estimate heroin production in Mexico jumped from 17 metric tons in 2007 to 38 tons in 2008.

Other concerns cited in the report were manufactured drugs like MDMA (aka ecstasy) in Asia and then smuggled across the Canadian border into the U.S. Prescription drug abuse continues to be a growing problem as well with the increased abuse of prescription opioids (morphine, codeine and methadone among others) causing a 98 percent rise in overdose deaths between 2002 and 2006, according to the report.
