TIPA Platform Series 11/40 – B02 Hemp for Farmers


Listen Later

Since the 1930's when Congress decided to make a naturally growing weed "cannabis" illegal.  They also made another naturally growing weed "hemp" illegal.  Both cousin plants do contain THC which the substance that give people "the buzz".  However, Hemp contains less than one-half (1/2) % THC.  Someone could eat or smoke a pound of HEMP and could not get a Buzz!  

American farmers have tried for decades to have the ability to grow Hemp because of its many uses.  And they have been squashed every time by the lobbyists for Oil, Paper, Cotton, and other industries. HEMP can be used to make rope, ship sails, cloth stronger than cotton, paper (the US Constitution was written on HEMP paper), home heating oil, lamp oil, Diesel fuel, plastic, and others.  Any questions!?
