    Did the cia invent crack? I was under the impression the cia was just selling huge amounts of cocaine to the inner cities and it was the ingenuity of the drug dealers that invented it

      I would believe either. But the fact is the CIA dumped loads of illegal substances on poor communities and may it may not have dropped a recipe or two along the way because someone in power may have wanted a reason to start a war on poor people of color.

      That’s what I heard, at least.
