Early in the 70's due the vietnam war huge amounts of heroin were brought into US. I remember watching a documentary showing how traffic was being done. Somewhere during during the war tons of heroin were being brought in thousands of coffins carrying deceased soldiers coming home - for years and years.
The intense traffic of heroin might have slowed down due to the coke hikes in the 80's but not for long. Besides, as said above, opiates were part of the history of North America with immigrants from China being able to smoke poppy seeds. The use of opiates were allowed for so long and there were no law enforcement that would prohibit what medicines you could or could not use. And a lot of them were opiates prescribed for cough, diarrhea, etc, etc. There was no control whatsoever, not until it was too late.
