Here's an interesting though, the basis of America is tobacco. That's how America was able to form. And now, it's the leading killer. Ironic?

not to be an ass, but heart disease is the leading killer, but it is kinda ironic, we try so hard to rid ourselves of our founding cash crop, it causes so much harm (and equally as much joy :D ), but we gotta remember, we'd be nowhere without it
I thought hemp was the #1 industry back in the late 1700's early 1800's. Along with of course Cotton, Corn, Wheat and tobacco, but I could have swore hemp was #1 for more than a century. (correct me if I'm wrong).
FINE, let me rephrase....
it's a shame america's top cash crop at it's birth, is a leading cause of death.
and america's top cash crop now is a leading cause of happiness :D
