In 1914, the Harrison Narcotics Tax Act outlawed the sale and distribution of cocaine in the United States.
Among the 311 pairs discordant for early marijuana initiation (just one twin in each pair smoked marijuana before age 17), the early initiators were 3.5 times as likely as their twins to attempt suicide, but no more likely to suffer from major depression.
According to the U.S. Sentencing Commission, only 5.5% of all federal crack defendants are high-level dealers.
Because of factors like these cocaine is further treated with oxidizing agents to produce a water-soluble form of the drug. This is usually done by further washing, oxidation and separation procedures that involve potassium permanganate, benzole, and sodium carbonate. The result is an odorless, white crystalline powder. It has a bitter, numbing taste.
