the banning in the '30's wasn't only about protecting existing industries as hemp and stuff comes from plants that don't get ya high. It was about preventing the use from spreading from the ghettos to nice suburban kids...insert skin colors if you choose.

Even if it was made illegal at one point due to industries not wanting the competition... that's simply not still the case. Pot will eventually become legal (as it should)... whether anyone bothers investing in turning it into a legitimate pharmaceutical I am doubtful.


I didn't say evil... I just said companies. I have no problem with what large companies do... it's just the nature of companies (people trying to move up by proving their worth). Anyway, it's well documented. Wouldn't be the first time (or last) that companies did everything they could to kill the competition. It is what it is, and in this case, it was the case... (thought about rewording that, lol).

Actually, the competition is fierce in the pharmaceutical aspect of it. I have met many suit type people in the (or trying to get into) the industry... mainly in the CBD area.

The general sound of the music. I don't discount how they changed music and were more than influential. Not even taking away that they were good, I just don't like the sound personally. Sorry to disappoint everyone.

Your lack of knowledge on this topic is simply staggering.

It's not only inaccurate, it's also dangerous."

your statement literally implies that natural is never better than manmade... literally... had you said "don't assume natural ALWAYS equals better than manmade", I would've agreed... but you didn't say that...




Not only do I disagree with your conclusion, I can't even see how you get that inference.

The only reason why it's illegal is because it could be used to make a wide array of products more efficiently and cheaper than other products back in the day. That threatened the bottom line of companies across several industries (I know rope and energy were a couple of them). If I remember right, all that crap happened in the 30s.



I love this argument.

It's not true, but it's a good one.


Hemp can be grown to make rope and converted to energy. This is true.
And the industries may have been coerced into extinction in the US.
But in this whole great big world where new technologies are given BILLIONS of dollars almost daily to find new energy (forget the rope), wouldn't someone have spawned a Hemp-to-diesel start up?

I see it all the time with different types of moss and bacteria and fungus. And it all works. And they're not squashed by big business. Rather they fail on technical merit, or costs, or problems scaling up to real time production.

Odd that the hippies don't cry about fungus being beat down by The Man.
Could there be an ulterior motive?

I said back in the day...

Tech is so much stronger now that you're right... now days it doesn't make sense. Back then however, our tech wasn't as strong and hemp was a legitimate threat as an alternative material for various products.

Research it.

I did some google research a while back on the paper industry.
Hemp was a strong player, but not in the same league as wood/forest products.

Hemp is versatile and maybe one of the reasons it's looked upon so favorably. But it was a "Jack of all trades / Master of none" by my calculations.

Shhhhh tail... don't squash those hippies dreams.

One day they fantasize of seeing acres and acres of non-thc hemp growing.....


....so they can plant a 5x5 garden of primo weed and no one would be able to tell.



Damn hippies aren't even tech savvy enough to realize a nice hydroponic grow room in their basement would be more efficient.

So how much did it cost to build your room?

It crossed my mind... I do have a nice storage area in the current apartment.

But I also am potentially drug tested depending on client site. So... not worth it. Never was a fan of pot anyway, not really a drug that did much for me.

Very true... but those lights use a LOT of energy, and CA houses have no basements... so the houses with the blacked out windows and the electric bill 5 times higher than all their neighbors... are easy to spot.

Just in case you haven't seen in other posts, my mental health has been doing pretty good. Surprisingly good. 4 very solid days straight. Haven't had that in over a year. Not sure if it is the meds finally working or just my working on my thought process and lots of prayers. Praying it continues to go well. I feel great...now to just stop chewing and lose some weight.

Glad to hear this and I hope you continue to improve!

I'm still looking for work and that has been the catalyst for my ill feelings, so I joined a gym. Taking classes three times a week and basic cardio/weights the other two, I spend two hours a day there, takes my mind off of everything. I've never belonged to a gym, never into it. All I have ever really done is use elliptical and treadmills in hotels all my years.

Taking the weekends off for drinks and debauchery.

When you first started this thread I too was in not so good shape, I ended up lowering my dosage on my own-I believe that between that and the gym I'm feeling much better. Mrs. Waldo sees an improvement as well.

Stay well so you can take care of those kids!
