How Does the Cocaine “industry” Work?

Question by brex25: How does the cocaine “industry” work?
First, how does cocaine addiction relate economically? Is coke itself addictive, be it physically or mentally, or are there additives laced in the drug that make it addictive, like in cigarettes, in order to increase profit? And if so, at which level of cocaine distribution is this done, and who profits? Is cocaine a market-driven product like any legitimate product or does it follow different “rules” i.e., is its distribution based on the supply and demand model or because of its underworldly nature (and addictive elements), is cocaine heavily “demanded” with a never-enough “supply.” Is the “supply” regulated by cocaine industry leaders similar to the way OPEC regulates oil output to maintain profits?
