The argument the government uses against hemp is that it contains THC, although industrial hemp is not shit you would want to smoke at all but that is besides the point. It's also funny that farmers in America a long time ago I don't remember the timespan were growing industrial hemp for things like clothing, food, you can even build a house out of hemp.

If any of you are really interested in the use of hemp go to jackherer.com
also go to http://www.jackherer.com/chapters.html and read his book which is online called "The Emperor Wears No Clothes" its all about hemp and would be much more informative then I.

have fun!
