Photo:We’ve written a lot about the economics of, both legal and illegal. There’s an interesting in Popular Science about Pyrex bake ware, crack cocaine, and the unintended consequences of reducing a product’s quality.Pyrex is valued by cooks for its sturdiness in the kitchen, particularly its ability to withstand rapid, dramatic temperature changes that typically shatter normal glassware.

It turns out that people making crack cocaine valued this quality too. The process of cooking powder cocaine into hardened crack is intense, and involves a container of water undergoing a rapid temperature change. For years, Pyrex measuring cups, manufactured by Corning, were a key component of the underground crack industry.But Corning sold Pyrex in 1998 to World Kitchen, which altered the makeup of the Pyrex material, making it less resistant to temperature changes and more prone to shattering.

This, points out the Popular Science article, had a substantial impact on crack production:An entire underground industry was forced to switch from measuring cups purchased at Walmart to test tubes and beakers stolen from labs. Which just goes to show, if you think you know all the consequences of your decisions today, you’re probably wrong.(HT: John Marlowe)Tags. I still don't think the reduction in drug manufacturing was worth the cheapening of an iconic American product. I wish WalMart would put the same pressure on its suppliers to improve quality as it does to reduce packaging and use RFID tags. Of course high quality items require replacement far less frequently and that means less trips to WalMart.

That is why I believe WalMart is so unethical, their incentives are not aligned with their customers. By pushing that with costs less initially they actually get their customers to pay more over their lifetime weather they are making crack or brownies.
