A Scanner Darkly, the drug epidemic is controlled by the pharmaceutical companies and they are still rich at the end.

But the movie ends with the brainfried undercover cop picking a drug-producing flower to send to his friends as a gift. It's implied that's what they need to bring the drug empire down.
