Drugs Inc. Series: Cocaine
In today’s society the influence and popularity of television programming is at an all time high. People watch more TV than ever before, and some of the programs offered are extremely educational and beneficial. National Geographic Channel offers all kind of unique and educational programming, but one show in particular has gotten an extreme response due to the nature of the show—Drugs Inc. National Geographic describes their Drugs Inc show—Drugs: A multibillion-dollar industry that fuels crime and violence like no other substance on the planet. Turning cartel leaders into billionaires, the illegal drug industry also provides vital income to hundreds of thousands of poor workers across the globe. While some users sacrifice their lives to an addiction they can’t escape, others find drugs to be their only saving grace from physical or emotional pain almost impossible to overcome. Where should the lines be drawn in this lucrative industry?
Each episode focuses on real people and real world situations involving a certain drug. It’s very shocking, educational, and inspirational to see how these drugs can affect our society and ruin individual’s lives. The cocaine episode focuses on the supply chain of cocaine stretching around our world, bringing vast wealth to a few and misery to millions. Both sides of the tale are investigated in a documentary style show, displaying junkie cocaine addicts’ ruined lives and the wealthy dealers that supply the drugs. The show can be very inspiring for a drug abuser and/or dealer to stop their drug involvement because they can see what will happen to them.
It’s important for people to understand the dangers of the drug world, and the show Drugs Inc. has done an excellent job in depicting the real world of drugs. Some of the episodes are shocking and graphic given the nature of drug abuse and the dangers of the drug industry, but for drug abusers to witness how scary the drug world can get is an effective way to get them to stop and seek professional help for their addiction.
