Re: The Real Reason Hemp Is Illegal

I'm in the salad bowl of the United States so there's plenty of farmers here. How exactly can a farmer sway congress? Farmer's Unions?

I'm not sure where you're going with this...

From what I have seen, Farmers get pushed around more than anyone. Monsanto, a corporation that actually patented the genetics of certain produce (which is illegal), steamrolled over farmers in court cases and destroyed good farmers business. Under completely preposterous and illegal circumstances I might add...

The goverment consistently favors the money making corporations, just like the article says. The only reason our "government" allows this nonsense is because the United States is technically a corporation itself.

No doubt we have to let EVERYONE know, I just dont see farmers as the answer.

All of these major decisions are made behind closed doors and it slides by because people dont have a good idea of who and what these leaders and organizations really are. Too many people accept the propoganda without asking questions.

I figure that people in the know should put out their own form of propoganda, the TRUTH. If people running corporations (i.e. government) can do it with lies, all we the people have to do is set forth the facts and it should snowball with much less effort.

The result is everyone being in the know and all the dirty schemes cant go by unnoticed...
