- Upset about skyrocketing marijuana prices in the U.S.,
- which range to $800 per oz.? Then book a flight to
- Czechoslovakia. A garden-supply chain in Prague is selling 1-lb.
- packages of pot imported from neighboring Romania for the
- equivalent of just 85 cents. According to the manager of the
- state-owned company, the weed is an effective "fertilizer."
- Thanks to the country's confused postcommunist legal system, it
- is not against the law just to purchase the "fertilizer." When
- the product's availability was disclosed in the Czechoslovak
- weekly Mlady Svet, dozens of Prague teenagers developed a sudden
- interest in gardening.
