Swiss cocaine so cheap and widely used they’re considering legalising it - Lemmy NZ

People should note that cocaine is the widest illegal drug used in Switzerland. Cannabis is second.
Man, I just don’t get how that many people would like coke. It’s a shitty high, that doesn’t last nearly long enough, that has massive implications for your long term health. I’m glad I never really got it, it’s too much of a rich persons drug for me to have ever been able to service an addiction to it.

Worth noting that a gram of coke currently goes for a nationwide average of around 100-150 USD in Switzerland, and about 200-250 in the US, per the data I looked up.

Different supply levels of and ease of access to various drugs make them comparatively more or less expensive. Combine that will a user base of above-average wealth and it makes sense.

I agree regarding the absolute value of the two drugs though. Coke is fine, I suppose, but nothing I want to shell out the money for - but then again, I’m not in Switzerland so who knows.

Not too sure, Germany should still be around 50€ / gram with Suisse for sure not 3x the price
I will happily edit in any corrections. This is just what I’ve found on Google. Haven’t done coke in years.
