their investment with better cheaper paper.
Almost no one knew that marijuanna and hemp were the same plant till after the oil, rope and canvas makers were suddenly out of business. Turned out
to be a boon for cotton and Monsanto due to all the herbicides and
insecticides that cotton needs, but that wasn't the why and wherefore.

"Eighty percent of our economy depended on CANNABIS/HEMP for paper, fiber and fuel, 125 years ago. At that time, it took 300 man-hours to harvest an
acre of CANNABIS/HEMP, but with the invention of the brand new HEMP
decorticator in the 1930s, it only took one & 1/2 to two hours. This is
equivalent to reducing the labor burden from $6,000 down to $40 per acre,
in today's money."

Actaully from what I can gather from the history, the cotton farmers are
who got marajauna outlawed, because hemp was beating cotten in the
marketplace.  But they have gotten their karmic reward, because when
synthetics beat out cotton for most applications, hemp turned out to the
the only natural crop that beat out synthetics economically, but they then
could not grow it despite trying to get the governement to lift the
ban later.

          it's true that me not having insurance has helped me find a
lot of better alternatives.
the problem is the pharma's and their proxies trying to stop
us from using other
          substances.

     Without the FDA, how would the pharmacies stop you?

     Even with the FDA, what's to stop you from using an "illegal and
unapproved" substance?
