Uruguay Sets The Price Of Dagga At R25 A Gram

Uruguay is taking steps to regulate the sale of marijuana in their country. With drug-lords taking over the fairly huge marijuana market of around 20,000 daily marijuana users, the government is stepping in to claim a slice of the pie.

Marijuana is legal in Uruguay, yet organised crime still finds a way to exploit the sale of Mary Jane. Between 8 and 10% of Uruguayans acquire their “medicine” through drug-traffickers and general bad-guys. If approved by the Senate, the government will sell marijuana to registered users at a fixed price of $2,5 (about R25) a gram, to deter people from giving money to the bad-guys, and feed it back to the state instead.
