USA - Question: How much do Americans spend on illicit substances per day/year?

[johnshaw]

Greetings,

It has been a while since I've posted here, and now look forward to concentrating more on this issue than ever before.

I hope this question is relevant enough to post in this forum. My apologies ahead of time if I skipped over a more relevant subforum.


I'm trying to find statistics that might show how much Americans spend annually and/or daily on illicit substances. I've perused the internet quite a bit and can only find statistics from the late '80s and early '90s.

Does anyone have an idea where I might find such statistics, or would anyone happen to have any statistics handy?

Any help would be greatly appreciated, and thank you so much for taking the time to read this.
