Whether the plant is harvested for medical, industrial or personal use, the industries it creates could be the Green Stimulus plan our state needs.

I'd hardly say it's a new cash crop.
Political figures' sudden realization of the lucrative business in cannabis, maybe.

Prohibition of Pot must end, it was an abortion of the system that made it illegal. It was done for political control, not health.

Will Obama listen? I sure hope so, but I know for a fact that he needs strong public support if the rest of the government is to allow this to happen. Show your support, share these ads, help inform the public!

Write to legislators, refer them to positive cannabis info.
There is plenty. Google it. Its a new day for hemp.
Hemp was bullshitted out of existence. It had nothing to do with health. Right the wrong. - 3 years ago

Legalizing hemp would put in jeopardy too many law enforcement jobs. As our governing bodies are all in the pockets of industry, hemp offers too much competition
to the following:synthetic fibers, plastics, cotton farmers, pulp makers, lumber companies , pharmaceuticals and paper manufacturers . And (hee, hee), you can take about 5 lbs of Kansas ditch weed, boil it down in the kitchen, thereby ruining it and the pot you do it in, and come out with about a teaspoon of very mild hash. Ingest orally, as smoking it wouldn't get a fly high. Selah. - 3 years ago

Everyone, tell your friends. We've got to keep this ball rolling, keep talking about it, keep pressing it. It won't happen unless we make it so.

Blame the Dupont family. They bankrolled Reefer Madness and paid off politicians to criminalize hemp to protect their empire of the artificial petroleum based fibers.

This makes logical and economic sense.... What else does the US government need to legalize weed and hemp?

Cannabis is the the largest cash crop in twelve states and Canada. Hemp is one of the largest legal cash crops in Canada.

Our founding fathers all grew hemp, and all of them thought that this was the nation that was going to grow up on hemp, seeing how the Constitution and the first American flags themselves were all made out of hemp. What ever happened to that? It's unfortunate that their predictions were wrong. If all of these politicians keep on bringing up our fore fathers and how they were great and all, and how they want to continue their legacy, why don't they actually being doing so instead of being hypocrites? The strongest and healthiest plant in the world is illegal and our nation has given up a lot of liberty for a false sensation of security. Let's get these hemp farms up and growing, and give our nation back the liberty it deserves.

Well worth repeating. Did you learn about it in school? Have you heard it discussed in public? Can you discredit it? Facts are facts and Jack is just stating facts. Many people have different opinions on many subjects, but opinion should not be what decides an issue. Facts should be the deciding factor. Hemp could be the new cash crop.
