President Donald Trump’s tariffs aren’t just a serious downer for investors on Wall Street but also those looking to get a THC high. The new taxes on imports from scores of countries around the world will affect the cost of many of the items that pot smokers use partake in their habit.
“Items such as tins, vape hardware and specialized glass remain difficult to source domestically,” reports Reuters. These items are mainly imported from Asia. Even growing cannabis in the United States will become more expensive as producers rely on compost and peat imported from Canada whose goods were already slapped with tariffs earlier this year.
