Look it was only made illegal due to Uber Rich / $$$$ Politically Connected newspaper owners and a Californian Monopolist called William R. Hearst. Yep ! the MSM of the 1920's-1970's.
All of which shalt to protect their new investment in Paper mills and forests.
Hemp is far less expensive fiber product that is more durable and its Environmental impact is tiny fraction of the Lumber industry.
Hemp costs less per ton of fiber to produce in to paper products than wood. Hemp industry used less fossil Fuels from start to finish wood.
Hemp takes a few months to grow and harvest. While trees take 8-25 years to be replenished and ready for harvesting.
BUT !!! We need to strongly control and regulate hybred plants production. Where the primary goal is to increase the THC factor not the hemp amounts. There is plenty of THC in a natural plant already.
Yes a 21 year old age limit.
Plus clear defined limits to Taxes.
Tax must limited to no more than simple adult bev's (eg. Beer or Wine) a typical consumption tax. .

I have experience dealing with alcoholics and know that you CAN DIE from the withdrawal of alcohol. Never from pot.
Time to stop drug testing new hires for THC content?
Just and FYI. I live in Indiana and we don't need a prescription for CBD oil. We can buy it at, almost all tobacco stores and gas stations. I know lots of people that use it, without having a doctor write a prescription. They just found some at a nearby tobacco store. Its pricey ($60) but worth it. Just 3 to 5 drops under the tongue and your good to go. I know children with ADHD that use it too and it works beautifully, better than all those pills they push onto our kids that are addictive.
The 9.2% of marijuana users is some type of Wikipidea fact..Completey inaccurate.
OOOhhhffdaa Big Pharma!!! Save lives not destroy them? Now the big question is who will own and operate? Hopefully Americans?
Big pharma is not going to like legalizing marijuana. Marijuana is a cure for cancer as cannabis oil. This will really mess up the greedy companies involved in radiation therapy and other useless remedies for cancer.
