Fentanyl production.
So it used to be weed.
Then it was coke.
It's still weed and coke, but now it is fentanyl.
And just look at the mathematics of this, right?
Fentanyl costs them 10 cent a pill to make in Mexico.
This is estimated, right?
Those pills that cost 10 cents to make can be sold between $10 and $30 on the street in the United States, right?
That's the margin, isn't it?
10 kilos of fentanyl is worth around $20 million on the street, costs about $50,000 to produce.
So you can see the extraordinary attraction of that.
And of course, fentanyl is really small.
The problem with weed is it's really bulky.
So weed is bulky.
Coke is less bulky, but still bulky.
Fentanyl, you can pack so much more into a tiny, tiny amount.
So the Chinese are manufacturing the...
Precursors.
Into fentanyl.
