hemp should be legal, simply to compete with the rest of the world we need to wake up and legalize hemp. you don't have to be for marijuana to be for industrial hemp, hemp is renewable unlike oil. The only reason industrial hemp is illegal is because, people thought they could make money on OIL ( and did) but at what cost to the enviroment. as well as global deforestization HEMP is the answer.

I think hemp is legal. The oils from it, could be used in alternative fuel cars, something like, eliminating entirely, the dependantcy of fossil fuels. Hemp was a "settlers" crop which was a major source of "rope" I think along the many rivers of the midwest USA. Exactly the boom on USA's economy, or when it occured, I'm not certain. However, hemp, was used to make rope sometime in the USA's history. Hemp products had many uses, or still have many potential uses, clothing, fabric, oils, lubricants, and rope. More uses of hemp, might comew in more Yahoo Answers. Keep i9t tuned right here at Yahoo Answers.com.

Small amounts of hemp are legal, products made from hemp are OK to sell in small quantities. If someone were to propose to make hemp completely legal, they would be shouted down as "soft on drugs", and then the Right Wing Idiot Demagogues would confuse the issue with MJ. They have the airwaves and the government, so it must continue to be an underground phenomenon.

multiple man or woman states have expressed interest in business hemp . Fifteen states have handed professional-hemp law; seven (Hawaii, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Montana, North Dakota and West Virginia) have gotten rid of obstacles to its production or analyze. North Dakota has issued state licenses, the first in fifty years, to 2 farmers so a ways.

hemp is legal in most of the us maybe all!!! cannabis sativa is the one they frown upon...there are a few strains of marijuana that got around the 'legal clause"in some states a few years back {just because of the botanical names}...but i think they go by the percentage of THC found in the plants now...

Hemp isn't legal because no matter how useful it is, people are going to use it to get high. Lots of people getting high is not good, especially not to the more conservative people who make up a good percentage of our nation.

Money, money, money, and maybe some health issues. Unfortunately for you the US is not one on the side of the biggest producers, but it is on the side of the biggest consumers.
