Nevada Crystal Meth Addiction

In 2006 it was estimated by Nevada officials that over 40,000 people were using Methamphetamine at the time across the state. The drug is scarcely created in the state; it is mainly imported from Mexican and californian "super labs". "Super labs" create over 10 pounds of Crystal Meth during a 24 hour time period; however officials say that it is becoming more diluted for sale all the time. Purity levels of the drug have gone from 99 percent pure Methamphetamine to the 50 percent range relatively quickly. A senator in the state had recently helped to provide 1.8 million dollars in grant money to hire new deputies and school police, although President Bush took the program away. From 1996 to year 2005 75 percent more people were seeking treatment for Methamphetamine in state funded programs.
