near my hometown, Oxy was prescribed pretty freely (before its dangers were fully known) to retired coal miners, steel workers etc dealing with pain, and these guys have some serious pain. They got hooked, as did their curious children and grandchildren who thought it would be fun to experiment. Of course, once people realized what was going on prescriptions became harder to get and street drugs were actually easier to obtain. There was never a real problem with heroin in the area until OxyContin appeared.
