"They (the government) think they're cracking down, but all they're doing is driving the price up," said Davis, the 32-year-old president of NORML's Minnesota chapter. Back in the 1960s, when many of today's marijuana advocates began smoking the plant, an ounce of marijuana cost between $15 and $30. The price is anywhere between $100 and $200 now, depending on availability and quality, yet about 23 million Americans continue to use it, according to U.S. government statistics..
