Meth mouth.

OK, here is something that puzzles me. Why is meth mouth all of a sudden a problem?

Pilots in the Air Force have been issued dextroamphetamine ("go pills") as recently as Afghanistan.

Amphetamines were first synthesized in 1887. Widely used by truck drivers and students studying for final exams.

And here is something that makes me suspicious.

Marijuana used to be frowned on, but wasn't illegal until prohibition ended and law enforcement needed something to do.

Now states are trying to make marijuana legal. Hmmmm.

I guess there are plenty of other explanations. I just am puzzled, that's all.
