You can imagine the xheads in South Florida clubs on ‘extreme
Ecstasy’? Bottle water will replace alcohol at ten times the cost of a
gallon of gas. Clubs in South Florida are already full of sweating wide
eyed rollers with enough energy to party till noon. We might start to
see 24 hour clubs.

Federal agents are targeting a turbo-charged form of Ecstasy that is gaining in popularity, fearing it will lead to fatal overdoses similar to ones experienced a few years ago caused by heroin mixed with fentanyl.

Michigan and nine other states along Canada’s border would see the first wave of any such overdoses, and officials are warning that the so-called “extreme Ecstasy,” which is mixed with methamphetamines, is becoming a problem.

“They (drug dealers) are remarketing and packaging it and trying to glamorize it,” said Scott Burns, deputy director of the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy. “We just went through this issue with fentanyl. We learned a lot of things from that. We have to get on it early and get on it aggressively.” Source: detnews

This is exactly what happened with razors, funnily enough: now one goes to the drugstore to find battery-powered vibrating triple-blade razors.

In Europe, the price of E plummeted as cometition increased. Dealers began selling "value-added packages", in which the MDMA-based pills would arrive in a little bag along with Viagra, Ritalin, Aspirin, or other come-down aids. It's amazing how the market economy's rules straddle the legal divide.
