I just don’t get how all the political ads are saying it comes from somewhere else but can be made and has been made in the states. Maybe we should look in our own backyard before overreaching the fence in someone elses backyard.
Probably both - however I think it’s not unreasonable to assume that organizations as mentioned in the article at least have the Chinese government’s blessing, if they’re not directly controlled by it. So even if the fentanyl itself is not coming from outside the states, the precursors from which it can be made with little effort are.
That and I guess some gangs make it somewhere else and then import it, but that’s another story.
Also technically, I think there’s legal fentanyl being produced in the states, but that’s usually not what’s meant in the discussion.

They’re bringing in all this fentanyl and stealing jobs from hardworking ma-and-pa black market fentanyl manufacturers!
