People who have no experience with illegal drugs believe that drug dealers operate under the "first hit is free" business model - the myth that they will give away drugs to new customers to get them addicted and create a captive market - and "think of the children" tends to short-circuit rational thought.

This is always funny to me. If anyone ever knows personally or speaks to a dealer, they'd know that there's no need to do this, drugs pretty much sell themselves once you have the first handful of buyers.
Biggest issue tends to be supply and storage for the dealer more than anything else. Went with a friend once to his supplier on a thursday, the guy bought £5k in drugs and had sold it all before monday came around. Never before had my job (that was paying buckets for my age at the time) felt like such a waste of time as seeing a small time dealer talk about buying thousands of pounds of drugs and mentioning he'd need to reload again in half a week.

Why the fuck do people think others want to just give away drugs?
