IOW it's market protectionism sold through a phony moral agenda.
And sorry, I see the "recreational drug culture" everytime I see a beer commercial on TV.
Exactly, let the free market decide where hemp stands, not the federal government.
Are you kidding? The free market failed us, just look at gas prices. We need government price controls and trade laws to keep corporations honest.
this statement and your sig are at odds with eachother ... either this is poorly presented sarcasm (as it seems too much like you are serious), you just want to stir up trouble, or something else I don't understand is going on.
either way I'll bite and go with this ...
the oil and gas market (and indeed the energy market in general) is by no means a free market. many of the issues that lead to current gas prices (not the least of which was the war in Iraq) are a direct result of government involvement and monetary policy causing problems.
