WHY are so many people doing coke?

Why are so many people doing any drugs? I know why I did 'em. No question at all. They feel good.

So now, it's not drug addicts who are violent. It's regular people who simply want a rum and coke!!!

coke < rum + coke

0 < rum

So he's saying rum costs money?

I guess the mayor is trying to increase tourism, cause now I wanna go to Brussels.

The article is really short. Could you not have even given it a glance?

The title is clickbait - in the article they differentiate coke and Coke, so it's obvious what it's meant to say and it doesn't seem so demented.

Drugs are simultaneously too cheap and too profitable. Makes sense, just like the immigrants that don't work and take our jobs

Something can be cheap and profitable though?

Sure but illegal drugs are most profitable when prices are higher
