Interesting?

My American History professor was talking to us about the plants they used to use in the early colonial times saying how they grew hemp and how Ben Franklin and other early important figures did use marijuana and did grow hemp etc etc.

Anyway, he said something that I was wondering if it had any credibility to it, he said that there is a bill just waiting to get passed making marijuana legal for a company to sell it in packs, just like cigarettes. He said that not only is this bill waiting to pass, but that the government has allowed the company to already grow the government marijuana and package it just like cigarettes, but that the company can not sell or even publicize the fact that they are doing this.

Has anyone heard anything like this? I really like this professor and I would hate to think that he lied, but at the same time...it just sounds so far fetched.

He is not the kind of guy that goes off into tangents or anything like that, he has over 4 PH.D.s and some other stuff, so I would say he's a very intelligent guy

There is a very limited federal MMJ program. I think there are 7 people in it now and they have not taken any new applicants since the early 90s.

There are always bills "just waiting to be passed." They never come up for votes due to lack of support. There is no secret plan to legalize marijuana overnight, if that's what your post is about.

Nope, I was really just trying to see if the guy is crazy, but I don't think he is because he was saying how it's been there since the early 90's, but...I guess it still doesn't make him right, eh?
