I have to imagine size and potency, as well as a partial legal framework for it to exist in (medical use).
If I want a balloon up my ass of fentanyl I could probably make 10x more on it, but why bother when I could buy it off the resident who needs to pay off half a mill in student loans?
There’s incentive not to snitch or arrest since fewer people are in medicine these days because of the huge cost of that education (at least in the US), so you’re incentivized to keep your mouth fucking shut if you see or hear of any fent dealing because it might take a while to replace them and all those patients will fall on your overworked shoulders, which will undoubtedly result in deaths and they might actually be very competent as a doctor, and their replacement will be in even more debt. Thus the system perpetuates itself.
The problem with debt traps is that they inevitably result in desperate people doing desperate things.

haha as if there weren’t enough pressures to stay out of US medicine, becoming collateral in the drug bust of your colleague sounds like a nightmare.
