$0.30 for 1 Gram of Cannabis in the Slums of Brazil, And That is Before You Haggle on Price

Australian travel blogger Timmy Karter took his life in his hands when he decided to travel into the Brazilian shanty town of Favela to film what the current drug market looks like for people living in these slums.  While local gangs and organized crime control the drug flow in and out of the slums, the 70-minute vblog is an eye-opening reality check for the marijuana industry as, among other drugs being sold on open air tables, is cannabis for $0.30 a gram, and that is before you begin the haggling process that is normal to produce a sale in Brazil.
