Synthetic drugs sprayed onto dried herbs are selling like hot cakes in Thessaloniki and other cities across the country. Some, like potpourri, are even legal, but they are extremely dangerous.

    A dying Nation is a Nation that sees the rise of Drug taking. Look at History China 1850-1949 Drug addicted and Poor. Now China is Getting Richer and has No drug issue.

    While in the Western White Nations who are dying, Who are getting Poorer. We see the rise of Drugs Drugs Drugs. No wonder we Decline.

    A Clean Nation is a Rich Nation.

    The way the condition of Greece is described is good but what about the drug rings, how the drugs are imported and the misinformation the other comments highlighted.

    Lived in Thessaloniki 2 years ago. Drugs are everywhere and pot puri is an epidemic here.

    In Greece the Police arrest kids for doing drugs and then keep the drugs for themselves. You can make a deal with anyone in Greece. Especially today with everybody suffering economically. I knew someone that was able to buy out the other half of a property that he co owned with someone for less than half of what he should have payed and his lawyer did nothing about it. Corruption is another thing that runs deep in the land of Greece. Plus lets not forger tax evasion.

    Called Spice and Bath Salts in America.

    Huge problem a few years ago but then it was dealt with jail time.

    Both will make you crazy.

    The chemicals for manufacturing both were coming in legally from China as "scientific study" chemicals and were legal until new laws.
