How would Drug Dealers survive the apocalypse?
Thinking about this for a while but how would a drug dealer surviving the apocalypse, I know current C isn’t really a thing anymore especially in those times would he survive I mean dose he exchange drugs with other communities for free or does he trade clothing or something I mean sure we seen Can’t with criminals are pop the apocalypse but still.

stop getting suggestions for the apocalypse
This was explored quite a bit in Fear TWD.
Nick was an addict and suffered from withdrawal. He was constantly searching for drugs when finding new locations.
Eventually he got high off walker brains.
There was a gang in Season 2 who traded water and supplies for drugs, don't know if they were addicted though.
And add in Season 3 - there was a lot of drug stuff.
Yeah, just watch Fear (until the end of season 3) to get all the questions answered.
Plenty of drug stuff in it. Dealers, problems, junkies, weird trips, it's all good.
I think that should be relatively easy to assume: successful drug dealers were smart enough to evade significant attention or even capture in some cases, so one that exists in the apocalypse would arguably be just fine if he still has product to exchange.
What the fuck...?
Yeah,that really happened.
They could get so high that they can fly away from the walkers
An apocaplyse would probably make their "product" more valuable. At least if the demand is there.
Yeah, only problem is what would suffice as currency at that point?
So drugs are the new currency in the apocalypse ?
I mean, I can be and has been.
I was more referring to how drug dealers themselves would "get rich" now.
What you did before doesn't matter. To paraphrase the incredibly wise Chuck: You're alive.
Finally someone who knows brevity. And proper usage, even.
I mean...drug cartels probably will be happy because they don’t have to worry about police anymore, but at the same time there is no money to be made, the kingpins probably will ask for protection in exchange for the product and heavily armed guard will protect the plantations or something like that.
Like everyone else?
Yea I think it would be fun if Clem or ricks group bump into someone and they used to be a mob boss thats just chill dude now with a lot of drugs
Drug dealers will be for new Bank of America in the apocalypse.
Food, water, guns, ammo, gas, maybe even a vehicle if there's a methhead that desperate.
There's a lot to be made.
