Commercial Hemp Production

[royalfan5]

I am very much in favor of legalizing commercial hemp production for fiber purposes. It would give farmers a low stress crop from an Agronomic point of view, as well as an additional hedge against risk. The fact that it is illegal is one of the more ridiculous outcomes of legislative lobbying in the first place. Can anyone give me a good argument as to why it should be illegal?

this is the stuff that you can't even smoke, right?

is the problem that it's too hard to distinguish from the good stuff?
