Hemp Revolution 2020!
America's Founding Fathers REQUIRED farmers to grow hemp because it is such a useful plant! Hemp makes better cars, homes, clothes, paper and food while protecting the forests, soil, water, and air. It can replace the 6,000 uses of plastics. Since hemp is biodegradable it can save our landfills and oceans while protecting our health! Hemp can also solve the massive problems caused by radiation.
In December 2018, President Trump signed the new farm bill legalizing industrial hemp for the first time since Nixon's so-called "War On Drugs" criminalized the growing of both industrial and medical hemp. Industrial hemp is a trillion-dollar crop that can jump start our economy while protecting and restoring the environment in multiple ways.
Medical hemp (cannabis) has been proven to be a panacea that can inexpensively cure a wide range of illnesses with no negative side effects. Cannabis has been used around the world for thousands of years and has never killed anyone -- in sharp contrast to prescription drugs which are now one of the leading killers of Americans. Cannabis should be immediately legalized again on the national level. Click the graphic to watch the video.
I created the Hemp Revolution video in 2011 when Dr. Ron Paul, as a Congressman, submitted two bills to legalize industrial and medical hemp. I was surprised to learn the wonders of hemp and wanted to share the information to facilitate passage of the bills.
I have updated the video each year. When it was posted on the Natural News site, the video was seen by over 5,000 people. It is now on Vimeo.
With each year, support for both industrial hemp and medical hemp (cannabis) has continued to grow. Soon, these plants which have been used around the world for thousands of years, will be restored to their natural place in the United States.
This is part of the Paradigm Shift to a healthier, saner world.
