Why is it something that can cure Cancer, stop early stages of Alzherimer's, help with seizures ALS, Parkinson's, and numerous Neurological disorders, feed humans, animals, birds, fish, clothe, build homes, heat homes, run vehicles 95% cleaner and more efficiently than any petrochemicals, run electricity cleaner than f****l f**ls and more efficiently than solar or wind. Notice I said more efficiently solar and wind is expensive and unpredictable. Still illegal and not fully utilized in this country, but in every other first world country? Greed? Ignorance? But just something that sounds to good to be true my God can't create? Man is evil not God and he gave us cannabis for these reasons and science has proved it! I'm going to have to go with Greed and Ignorance, we are so afraid of this plant that we would lie to our fellow man to keep the best thing in the world illegal because it makes us feel different for 3 or 4 hours than to study this plant in depth, this is on us all to keep this plant illegal even though it would bring food, fuel, clothing prices down where it legal. Greed? or Ignorance?

Wow! That said I still will not get on the band wagon of support.

Just educate yourself, enjoy your chemo or radiation, and if that doesn't work for you get yourself some Rick Simpson Hemp Oil and live. I've seen it work on stage 4 bone cancer. It's not a cure all for stupidity but education works for ignorance, once you get to stupid your a goner.

I read an article years ago, but can't remember the source, that someone had developed a motor that could burn water as fuel. I believe there was even a movie out about it. But the oil companies jump on it, bought the process out and that was the end of the discovery. But, if someone creates any cheap thing to use as fuel, it would never come into being, because greed would consume it in a instant. That goes for everything that would be discovered. The battery golf carts can run on a charge for 24 hours per charge, why can't auto companies produce this process on a larger scale for autos. Towmotors can lift heavy items all day long and run around all day long on a one nights charge, why can't they make an auto with a different gear ratio run the same way and produce the speed you need. Generators or aulnators could be easy install on the axle someway to place a constant charge on the batteries, for constant power

I believe there is more good than bad in the world, but I do believe there is more stupid than ignorance in it also and the tool of the internet is a beautiful thing that we can help educate one another. I think I know what you are saying about the water thing though. If you check google or maybe YouTube I bet you can find it. The process would seem very hard and expensive. chemistry, molecules, splitting atoms???? I wouldn't know where to start. I'm ok being stupid on this physics lesson, but water for fuel sounds expensive, but clean. That would be cool!

yea as soon as they break it down and get the hydrogen.

There is, to my understanding, a difference between "hemp" and cannabis.

I thought that they came from the same plant.

Seeing it was from you AuntiE I checked & it is from different parts of the same plant.

In to the 50s & later you still could find the plants growing wild along road sides in Wisconsin. It may have been a type of the same kind of plant. During World War II they grew the plant to make hemp, burlap, cordage etc.

Banjojack did a forum on hemp a week or so ago. It was very thorough.

Hemp is in the cannabis family there is no medicinal value, very low (THC) Tetrahydrocannabinol THC is the psychoactive or mind-altering ingredient in the cannabis family. Their are specific family members in this plant. cannabis indica, cannabis sativa, cannabis ruderalis, hemp is a near family member in the cannabis sativa strain. All cannabis strains contains THC but hemp or (indian hemp) is like a non-alcoholic beverage. Hemp has no medical value, but they have made entire structures from this plant, mixed in mortar its called hempcrete. Sorry I'm getting off track now all other strains will cause some type of mind altering from just a little to outer space depending on what strain used. The strains Rick Simpson uses to make his healing oil is a high quality indica. I have a friend that used it near death and now has out lived his death sentence the medical Dr.s gave him with bewilderment, so if you know someone? I wouldn't believe it had I not seen it, Just wish I knew about 5 years ago when my best friend, my Dad was dying from lung cancer.

Different parts of the plant are used for different things.

No other plant in the history of the world can be utilized to the extent this plant can be utilized, 50,000 different uses, 30 barrels of oil per acre from the pressed seed not to mention the seed that is pressed is excellent feed for cattle, reducing fuel and red meat costs could really help my house hold out tremendously, and the hurd (inside of the stalk) can be used from plastics, paper, insulation, animal bedding, kitty litter. And the list goes on and I did not even touch on the fiber (outer layer) or skin of the stalk makes wonderful clothing, 7x stronger than cotton warmer,more breathable. I just don't know where to stop, all done without pesticides or fertilizers. This year the USA will begin growing hemp for the first time since the mid-30's or so. Please research this truly amazing plant and help educate the benefits of hemp.
