Then, the cultivation of industrial help -- which is not

range of applications: paper, fabric, building material and cheap

How do you explain that growth of industrial hemp was encouraged
by the government up through World War 2? Did it not pose the
same threats then?
Good question, but it seems to go in Telmo's direction. It shows
that the banning of hemp was indeed purely irrational, and
motivated by making easy money based on lies. it was only a way to
impose oil and forest against a natural efficacious sustainable
competitor.
It can't be both. Making easy money is quite rational. But I don't
know who you think led the campaign to ban marijuana. It's my
impression that it was a lot of self-righteous and fearful
conservative Christians who did not stand to gain anything
monetarily - anymore than they now stand to gain by preventing gay
marriage. I don't see that going hemp was any threat to the oil
industry or lumber?
I don't see why "going hemp" was any threat for conservative
christians, before it was illegal. There were just no complains, and
hemp was a useful plant (for industry and medicine, since 3000 years
in the world, and hundreds of years in america).
"Going hemp" was a threat for those investing in the OIl synthetical
pharma, for Oil's plastic fiber, for steel, etc.
There were no complain on Hemp. Not one. The danger was a set-up. 100%.
The idea that drugs are bad became a conservative idea *only after
drug prohibition*. (Conservative like law enforcement).
Here is very good video, which summarizes well this at the beginning,
and then shows the *many* medicinal virtues, and the progress in the
why and how that is possible.

There are infinitely more overdose with water each year (some
hundreds) than overdose with cannabis (0).
The fear of cannabis raised *only* from propaganda movies (you can
find all of them on youtube).
It is like antisemitism and racist in europa: lies and lies and lies,
and then people believe that there is no smoke without some fire.
