[Vision2020] Man aims to become first U.S. hemp farmer

[Kai Eiselein, editor]

I can actually agree on this....but I do have one burning question.
Why are there so many bongs, aka water pipes, aka "decorative glasswares"
for sale at "Hempfests"?
Are they planning on smoking rope? Or using hemp for cover?
Seems to me, hemp would be more "acceptable' to mainstream America if
promoters of the fiber were to give the ganjaheads the boot.

For the life of me, I cannot understand why the resistance to commercially
grown hemp.  It seems as close a "miracle crop" as we can find, with
benefits in environmental conservation, nutrition, textile  production . . .
Particularly strange is that just more than a generation ago, farmers were
urged to grow hemp as part of their "patriotic duty" during World War II.

The nation's "war on drugs" long ago became something else entirely . . .
