Legalizing industrial hemp use
---

Like Canada has, and most of the rest of the industrialized world has, could go a long way towards rejuvenating our economy.

The 10's of thousands of products from paper, fuel, food, cloth, etc...would be a boom for small farmers and cottage industry.
Our economy needs a home based revitalization to get Americans back to work and stimulate circulation of capital.

Will an Obama admin look into this ever?
