Heroin is cheap and it is becoming a problem of epidemic proportions.
And it comes with all these wonderful new immigrants south of the border.
Heroin has become headline news and a topic of debate among presidential candidates due to a substantial uptick in heroin-related deaths and overdoses. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the number of heroin-related deaths rose 286 percent between 2003-2013.
Epidemic. Where does it come from.
