In the 1920's and early 30's, Hemp was being promoted as the plant that could save the world. It's hundreds of uses and amazing ability to grow with little effort made this plant the perfect choice for fuel, clothing, paper, and even food and medicine. In fact, one acre of hemp is worth 4.1 acres of trees for the amount of paper that can be produced. One of the first cars ever made even ran on hemp fuel. Hemp can be turned into fuel just like corn, but it doesn't take anywhere near the same amount of resources as corn to grow. If we truly wanted to “Go Green” we should turn to hemp.

 

Obama talks about reducing the countries dependency on foreign oil, and yet here is this miracle plant waiting to be sewn. If this country truly wanted to go green, then we should legalize hemp and begin massive efforts into the cultivation of this industry. Here's a stimulus package for you, use 1 billion dollars to get this country producing in the hemp industry, and I will guarantee that we are out of this second depression.

 

Make no mistake this country is heading toward tough times still. We need a catalyst, hemp can be that catalyst. This country is already in the processes of legalizing it, I don't understand why they just don't do it in one fell swoop instead of dragging out a process that will only benefit the country in the long run.

 

Prohibition is costly, we need to save money, Hemp is cheap and can reduce our dependency on foreign everything many, many, many times over. Unfortunately, logic and reason are often frowned upon in government, and so we must continue the struggle, and educate as many people as we can about the truth about Hemp and Marijuana. Growing Weed can save the world, and yet the US treats this miracle plant like herpes.
