Since the 1970’s cocaine has been a rising
problem in the united states. Furthermore in New
Jersey, the epidemic is still on the rise. Crack
abuse has been on the rise since the 1980’s.
The difference between cocaine and
crack is:
Cocaine-

soluble and can be snorted.
Crack-
freebase, which is a compound that is heated and
smoked. It is usually cheaper than cocaine powder.
No matter how one uses cocaine, there is no safe
