From what I understand from various news sources, the heroin increase in the USA is a direct result of our invasion and overthrow of the Taliban in Afganistan.

The Taliban banned opium poppy cultivation that had been going on for centuries. With our invasion, we had to make a compromise to keep the Afganistan economy from crumbling and to satisfy the regional warlords opium cultivation has resumed. Production of opium in Afganistan has risen 2000% since our invasion.

Quite a tradeoff, huh?
