Uruguay to sell marijuana tax-free to undercut drug traffickers

[petskup]

President Jose Mujica signed a decree outlining the fine print of the new policy this month. It says Uruguayans will be able to buy up to 10 grams of marijuana a week in pharmacies at between 85 cents and US$1 a gram, a price comparable to black-market pot.

You can get weed for $1 a gram in Uruguay?  That can't be right.

The Uruguay legalisation was briefly discussed over in the politics section: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=613224.msg6818564#msg6818564

That's what it use to be here for swag back in 2000+to2005.

 28 grams for 28-30-25 bucks. Seedy stemy shit though"mex brick shit". Not the high grade THC good stuff.

But still use to be the cheapest.

I thought weeds got legalized in Uruguay not so long ago , was It legal In 2000-2005? And could you really get 1 gram for $1 and if not what Is the current price now?

[nickenburg]

Wow 85 Cent to 1 dollar for a gram of weed that is so cheap!
Here in The netherlands you can buy like 1 gram for 5 euro but that is not really good weed
And you pay 8-16 euro for the better higher thc Pecentages weed.

Well here in India, I can give you weed for less than 1dollar/100gram. Weed is almost free here , but the government generally discourages the use of weed except for medicinal purposes.

Weed is not legal in India. While, the local cops may tolerate the natives using it, any foreigner caught with even minute quantities of weed can expect extreme harassment from the cops.

Wow, as far as I know salaries In India are ridiculously small, you could make huge business If you can sell  100g for less than 1 euro but It's illegal right? You could sell 1 gram at least for $8 not to locals but It's a crime right i guess

Well selling marijuana locally is an easy task, but the rates offered are too less, maybe you wont be able to make 10dollars for a kg of marijuana if you sell it easily, and no one keeps a check on the selling of marijuana in the local markets. But at the same time its very very difficult to get marijuana across the border lines.

Yup you are correct, locals can use it as they want but if foreigners are caught with it the can face severe penalties from the courts.

Let's see where it will take them, sounds like a right step. I am not so sure about the army controlling some, though. hm..

In certain places, the use of weed is tolerated to a certain extent. Includes the village of Malana (in the Himalayan mountains) and certain places in the state of Goa. But if you are caught with weed in the wrong place, then you'll be in trouble.

$1 for 100 grams? I don't believe that.

Don't they sell Bhang in shops over there?



I'd love to go to India sometime. So is it a big no-go for tourists to smoke or use Bhang?

Yes, they do sell bhangs in the shops here, and here you dont need to go to a shop to purchase it, if i get out of my house and travel a 100m, Ill have a hectare of land full of marijuana plants and no one even cares to harvest it.

And tourist have to just a little careful while using it, just dont use it in front of cops and you are safe. Marijuana is widely consumed during the Holi festival, and all the foreigners consume it, it not a big deal in India to use Marijuana.

Cool. Where abouts do you live in India (if you don't mind me asking)? Does weed grow wild in many places? Would be cool to see some. Are Bhang shops plentiful in India and do they all sell to tourists?

Well I live in Delhi. In Delhi you can find weed growing in many places but as compared to other places its very less in Delhi and Yes, there are plenty of marijuana shops in India, but I dont think there is any bhang shop in delhi itself, they are more prevalent in remote areas and in areas that attract a lot of tourists. Rates for the tourist would be like 50times more than the rate for a local and please do visit INdia, you would love this place

[bryant.coleman]

Mexico also should following the footsteps of Uruguay, in legalizing soft-drugs such as cannabis. That said, I still don't know why the support for weed legalization is so low in Uruguay.

I sure will in the not so distant future. Deli would definitely be a place I'd visit. You up for being my guide and getting me some good deals on weed? haha. How is bitcoin over there? Is there many shops that are accepting it or people dealing with it yet?

Hahaha... Yes, Ill be glad to be your guide and get some marijuana for free. And there arnt any shops that are accepting btc here and there are just a few people who deal in btc here, around 100-200 people use btc in a populated city of delhi with 17million of population.

Do so hope it works! Perhaps then we here in the USA can finally put the 40 year drug war to and end. Not only do countries that have legalized drugs see a decline in theft, violence and drug depency, incarceration is obviously reduced. Oh my, what will the for profit "prison system" do? Well hell continue the drug WAR!
