Obama: "$77 Billion A Year From Hemp Won't Help Economy!"

[massmedia4life719]

If our government is threatened by a plant, what does that say about our leaders?

[DesaStables]

DR RON PAUL IS SPEAKING WORDS OF WISDOM...LET IT BE...LET IT BE...RON PAUL 2012!!!

[nickelpickel78]

@Mw2x420 4:56 "the government does not care if you smoke marijuana"

[trick29420]

Barry SUCKS.

[DgurlSunshine]

HEMP can save the World LETS DETOXIFY THE PLANET!!!

[subzero7720022]

Obummer= Another worthless troll of a politician!!! Just make sure to vote for Ron Paul and we will see just how many BILLIONS UPON BILLIONS of dollars medical Cannabis and Hemp can generate for our down-trodden economy!

^_______^

MARIJUANA IS NOT, IS NOT HEMP!, THERE IS A DIFFERENCE

[casrasta1]

He is a freakin Tard.... What a Liar... THe Elite will loose control... Bastards and there Psychopath agenda

[MaxKamer]

lies and deceptive, distractive language can be utterly dismantled with the proper knowledge (as the doc exemplifies in this video). the truth, on the other hand,can only be hidden and masked with so much political language before it becomes pervasive and can no longer be undermined. hemp is and has always been the number one natural resource on this planet, both in terms of industrial and pharmicological use. LEGALIZE reefer, then BAN politics

[stevethewsimpson25]

What Obama really means is the he is not willing to give up a major business- The War On Drugs. The largets drug dealers in the world are the leaders of the world. Keeping drugs illegal means keeping all the money in the pockets of the 1%ers.

[SolfeggioMage]

Illegal growers highly oppose legalization.

[MsJulesmonster]

Do you have the original video of his speech from CNN? I'd like to hear what he has to say in the whole thing, instead of bits being pulled out of context....

[haleyvillegirl]

@MsJulesmonster how can u say it was pulled out of context, his actions spoke way louder than his words.

[SXSic]

its pretty obvious now that there is a huge cover up. When we find out who's behind the strings we need to get them kicked out of this country then publicly executed for treason against the will of the people.

[rooti70]

Great video! The TRUTH will prevail!

[eccentricity00]

excellent vid

[soundsdreamy]

O's position is just as sickening as most of the other politicians we have around here.this fakery needs to stop. $44billion for law enforcement--what will those people do if they can't ruin other people's lives to put food on their own table?

[Jrobinson2009]

cigarettes proving to kill people but 4 some reason smoking rat poison is better than smoking something god made grow from the ground. Yes God made weed, thats why they cant find no harmful effects from it.

[avabasa]

Only the world's greatest thieves think 77 billion isn't important, it is important, important to the criminal leadership to maintain disorder and chaos, guns & imprisonment, fearful public

[SolarEXtract]

Obama lost my vote long ago when he laughed us for even asking the question. He's a wimp and a loser President.

[PalaverTwist]

Please read "My Rant" by yours truly, in my channel.

[MHPSpokane]

We offered to help the economy, but instead of graciously accepting our help he sent in a squad of thugs to rob us and assigned a grand jury the task of indicting us. The federal government has reduced itself to a gang of thugs and thieves. It's time to take back the freedom we were promised would NEVER be taken from us.

[malcolmx919]

The numbers generated by pot-smoker advocates are exactly that: numbers given from POT SMOKERS. Here's just one of many thoughts to stick in your pipe and smoke: why are you counting prosecution (cops, legal fees, etc.) in revenue that would be saved? Do you think police are just going to stop working and we're magically going to save money? No. The police will spend their time something else instead (you name it) and be paid for THAT instead, thus saving no money in that area. Bad statistics.

[haleyvillegirl]

@malcolmx919 at least then the cops in California will start responding to break-ins and robberies again. besides, all those people putting "pot" i there pipes and smokeing it have just as good a chance being successful as you if not more, just look at Steve Jobs ,Willy Nelson, Michael Bloomberg, and even the hypocrite obama.

[empressras]

Hemp can be grown organically in poor soil almost anywhere, up to three crops per year. Hemp is naturally drought, pest, and disease resistant, eliminating the need for synthetic chemicals and reducing the demand on dwindling water supplies. Hemp biomass can be converted to methane or methanol. Hemp is cold hardy (Able To Withstand Freezing Winters) Hemp is pest resistant Hemp is draught resistant Hemp has a production rate of up to 10 tons per acre, every 4 months.

[plightoftheMany]

Hemp can completely replace the oil and timber industries, as well as most textiles. Why would we still need oil if you have thousands of acres per small community, allowing it to be independently sustainable, outside the hands of big business...Keep digging your grave, leadership, I'll bring the shovel. We are Legion

[plightoftheMany]

Anonymous will correct the injustice. Expect Us

[circusboy90210]

$77 billion might do it alone but every little bit helps like drilling for more oil now, every little bit helps and adds up to more than if we don't try . this man is selling us down the river everyday with his policy's even if you can get past the point that he is not naturally born. remember nat born citizen has nothing to do with a birth certificate and more to do with the parents alegiance to foreign powers and how the child is raise. an illegal alien can be nat born if nobody contests it.

[crabron69]

idk why he make a big deal about it anyways it gonna be legal in the next 10 years or less

[SuperSparky2012]

Hey maybe if they legalize the stuff they world might mellow out.

[drgodinho]

Hey, dear americans, is THIS the president YOU elected??

[Kymus]

Hemp is not marijuana; marijuana is not hemp. This confusion only complicates things for the legalization of industrial hemp.

[ja0401]

Seriously, the masses need to get their heads out of their asses, and hope that the legalization bill passes. They need to take classes, and stop worrying about jokes like passing gases. Madness! The people need to wish they had this, vote yes to make it legal, there's more than smoke in hashish.

[101101101777]

This is good EXCEPT it is confusing and not making clear distinction between HEMP no THC and "marijuana" (inaccurate name).  "Weed" Cannabis is different from hemp. But it's the law and taboo of it as a drug that keeps hemp illegal because it's too much competition. They are 2 different plants EEEERRRGGGG

[teslaminded1]

U can make EVERYTHING out of hemp. Even plastic. It also will take the toxins out of the soil! The list goes on. rather than legalize all drugs why don't we start with hemp and marijuana. Simple.

[endthedrugwar]

77 billion doesn't even begin to cover what Marijuana will provide annually. Der.

[MrPoetM]

@jefferz2k8 Heres a link for you, A house being built from Hemp

watch?v=il7yw0JFs5c&feature

[jefferz2k8]

"No i dont think that is a good strategy to grow our economy". HOWEVER aparently having an economy, and country for that matter, based almost entirely on a non-renewable resource that is rapidly depleting like oil...it could almost entirly fix the econmy, generate millions of jobs for farmers, energy companies, pharmacutical companies, clothing industries it can also make explosives which would help the mining companies...obama needs to get his shit together, facist prick!

[bahaila]

Obama, get out of the closet bitch!!!!

[zimzimmma]

U have to realize that it is not because of the money its illegal....its the higher consiousness it gives people who smoke it...cause cannabis reveals the system, and makes people to think for them selves...that way, they become enemy of the state.

[TheRealDerfMan]

I recommend people look up "Hempcrete", concrete from hemp. A good hemp documentary is "When We Grow"....

[jefferz2k8]

@TheRealDerfMan wow, i knew it could make rope, clothes, medicine, fuel and even explosives...but not concrete..im looking this up =D

[TheRealDerfMan]

@jefferz2k8 ...right on, bro. I didn't know about it either until I saw "When We Grow", which I really, REALLY recommend everyone watch (it's mentioned early on in the documentary, too), but you can also look up "hempcrete" here on YouTube, or hempcrete(dot)ca as well...

Man, the title of this video is good, but it technically should read "$77 Billion A Year From Hemp Won't Help OUR CORPORATE FRIENDS!" to paint a clear picture of what's really going on. We live in a "Corporatocracy", folks....

[jefferz2k8]

@TheRealDerfMan ill look it up when i get chance mate....and i agree, obama is nothing but a facist

[Sophic11]

Is there a version of this video without the background music? It's incredibly annoying.

[Sophic11]

[solman151]

GOOD VID, ONE SUGGESTION THO. DONT CALL HIM "PRESIDENT OBAMA" HE ISNT MY PRESIDENT OR URS

[PattyC127]

If hemp/cannabis, a god-given plant, had not been made illegal [under bogus reasons] by old ass white cronies the BP oil spill would not have happened.

[BonesDGAF021]

was he fucking high when he gave that speech? he's like ANNNND UHHHH & his eyelids are all heavy... idk man different strokes for different folks but I WISH I DIDN'T HAVE TO HIDE MY STASH ALL THE TIME! would be nice to just rip a bong sitting at the park instead of in my stuffy garage... :(

[duecebiggalowe]

5:00 says it all

[duecebiggalowe]

we need a Federal Medicinal Marijuana laws, then all states will follow.

Regulate and control it and most of all we could tax it.

when will the rest of America wake up and stop the conspiricy

[duecebiggalowe]

legalize, medicinalize !!

[frax911]

it is magnifisant

[frax911]

hemp paper could completly eliminate the need for trees to be cut down

[MegaHomonaama]

JEFFREY MIRON SHOULD BE PRESIDENT!! Very intelligent talking!!

[YouSayYouWantA]

CNN news anchor admits her job is to be an advocate for the devil. 7:45

[Ddstairclimber]

we can still save our economy, if we legalized prostitution, drugs gambling and other prohibitions. prohibition of alcachol did nto work, nor it does for prostitution, drugs, gambling or organ selling. Save our economy. Give freedom back to the people of America!!!!!!!

[omega4chimp]

Hemps not a drug try not to twist the facts.

[Castaldo2010]

booo!!

yes on prop 19, yes for richard castaldo for congress!!!

[KiteFlyingMe]

Legalizing drugs would be the NEXT worst thing America could do! Besides the Healthcare Bill(The Lord Knows That HealthCare Bill Is The DEVIL!) What are we?......Amesterdam!!!???

[DarkSeasonBass]

@KiteFlyingMe and what would be so bad about being amsterdam? are you aware of there crime rates compared to ours? there economy compared to ours? and by that i dont mean what "god" tells you when you close your eyes, tap your heels together 3 times and repeat "theres no place like heaven, theres no place like heaven" i mean, in reality, have you seen the statistics? im guessing not, which is why you are so bold as to suggest you have any idea what "the good lord" would do or want 4 our country

[DarkSeasonBass]

@KiteFlyingMe if the good lord has any idea what would be best for our economy, and he seems to be informing you of some kinda great plan he has being as your so confident in his decisions. then tell him to vote. but until that happens. wake up, realize that the words god, lord, and devil should never be associated with politics. this is state we are in right now. go back to church, with all the rest of the slaves. those who follow are blind. those who think for themselves are free

[adhdboy699]

i agree but i think 18 or 21 or older

[so0ns3rd]

We need to make our corporations stop controlling our politics this is a democracy not a monopoly we let free market capitalism get the best of us and provided corporations with unlimited funding to politicians and able to control America

[OsoLoco40]

Idiot!

[valikdutan]

id like to apologise if my post appears many times. i had errors posting it

[BabelOn4infinity]

Liberals fell for this puppet. Maybe now they'll wake up.

[metalizedangel666]

Although i do wish pot would be legal, legalizing it would not only be amazing but it create would a great deal of problems. Some of these problems include early usage by teenagers, increased chance of birth related defects, Strict laws on usage (simalir to restrictions on alcohol), and risk of paying more then "under the table" prices. I do smoke but I agree with keeping pot illegal.

[HashburyNews]

@metalizedangel666 show me a case where smoking pot caused birth defects.

kids can get pot easier than alcohol and cigarettes... because it's illegal.

check the facts on legalization/toleration in holland... weed is available in coffeeshops, yet the dutch kids try pot far less than american kids.

and finally, making marijuana legal would dramatically reduce the price and at the same time, reduce the cartel gang violence.

[farscapebabe]

@HashburyNews not to mention you don't see high speed chases from someone smoking They are usually at home kicking back watching old flicks on TV. You do however see the high speed chases when they are illegally transporting marijuana (not dangerous) and Meth, Heroin, Cocaine (DANGEROUS drugs). All the money saved in courts and police is just the beginning if marijuana was legalized.

[TBRAMPAGE]

@metalizedangel666 I can get pot easier than i can get cigarettes and much much easier than i can get alcohol and im 17. The reason for this is because alcohol and tobacco are regulated. So i think early use by teenagers would actually decline.

[OGdank13]

no birth defects friend

[LisaFrequency]

@metalizedangel666

At least if it were legal a teenager might get asked for ID do you think the corner dealer ask your teen for ID?

Pot does not cause birth defects.....

[HashburyNews]

@LisaFrequency yep, no birth defects!

cannabis (aka hemp) stops cancer (harvard study), stops breat cancer (UCSF) and grows brain cells in mice (Princeton)...

don't attack the messenger... attack these universities and CRAZY scientists!

marijuana is a slang name promoted by hearst, dupont, other corps to demonize it.

fuel paper fiber food (industrial hemp can't get you high)

and medicine (cannabis hemp)

edoocate yerselfs!

[zanychimp]

@HashburyNews yes, and if it were legal, there'd be no reason for cartels to kill people over it.

[jcfern55]

@HashburyNews I could go on and on about medical facts and positive effects that everyone with half a brain already knows about, but I'm not. I just want to say I actually know someone in the Netherlands, regular 19 year old and he does smoke pot, but not everyday and he doesn't have it as his lifestyle just because his country tolerates it. He is a non-nonchalant, casual user and I am 100% this is because of where he lives and his country's stand on marijuana.

[checkersq]

@LisaFrequency good job lisa .. obama is a lying nigger no better than a crack dealer paid off by a cartel...hes paid off by the bilderburgers to keep laws that are bad for the people. what a damn disgraceful president... no better than bush , maybe even worse because people dont see him coming...disgusting uncle tom bitch!!

[chiphayn]

@metalizedangel666 no it cant. it would cost less than buying over the counter. and kids would have a harder time getting it if it is regulated. if that helps.

[AvatarRoku1]

@metalizedangel666 O'rly? Show me one case where cannabis has caused birth defects. You can't, because there aren't any.

[davidisgenius]

Cannibas wouldn't be here if at least one creature on earth depended on it. Turns out, we all do. Marijuana legalization is the best thing that could happen to the world. Doesn't really matter, though. Nobody's stopping me from using it. I estimate that by 2020 at most it will be legal, because by then politians will haven given up trying to win a hopeless battle against an entire country of pot smokers. WEED IS THE ANSWER TO LIFE!

[perrytheshit]

Fucking asshole obama.(not gonna capitalize that name) makes promises to the stupid American population and what do you know, was lying the whole time. "obama is going to save everything" What a dumb bitch who said that

[hubeef]

so what!!! This video is a hit! Pot is all good...for everything,,,why wouldnt bringing that out help... re education...then people would say, can u believe this was ever illegal

[acamogirl]

ATTENTION ALL AMERICANS

please check out my channel, learn of my Cross Country trip to gather signatures for the immediate re-legaization of marijuana as it pertains to our Constitutonal Rights.

Come see me as I visit a City near you.

sign my petiton , make a stand

[thechurchofdave]

For this guy to talk about legalizing in his first term would most likely be political suicide.

For the first black president to try to legalize what the conservatives see as "DOPE" as apposed to usable hemp would immediately be propaganda which would very effectively remove his chances for a second term.

If he were to try to change this law he would have to wait until his second term. Hemp means billions of dollars of lost revenue to chemical companies so it's unlikely any president will.

[hamishpriest]

Is it possible, Cannabis is illigal because it is a form of currency. People buy and sell without useing money, what would the bank's do, if people stopped useing money bcause there was a viable alternative ?

Just a thought.

[hamishpriest]

Now will people see, You can't trust Obama, he does not deserve the Nobel peace prize. He is a fraud and by not legalizing he is continuing a pointless WAR, which he can't win in which many more people will get hurt. Peace, what does he know about peace.

[Ulai777]

What do you expect from a marxist clown?

[Ne0mega]

Heh heh, stupid kids. If you want to stimulate the economy, murder and maim muslims, destroy their homes, then rebuild them, then destroy them again!!

[perrytheshit]

why do you give a shit about those people. we started all that shit you dumb fuck. smoke a joint or something, you need to relax and get a bj. i dont know. but you need something

[artisticinvisions]

The only reason cannabis is illegal today is based on race, just like most drugs, so let's stop the discrimination already and legalize cannabis because we're being hypocrites here acting like the majority of us don't smoke the sticky green.

Watch the History Channel program called "Hooked" illegal drugs and how they got heat way, you'll be even more enlighten.

[hamishpriest]

Capitalism is destroying the planet.

Cannabis is green and is a renewable plant which produces oil.

It also makes good quailty clothes which last. Can you see where the problem is ? Capitalism needs you too buy buy buy in order to survive, why buy when you have products which lasts.

Listen to Obama' he says keep raping the planets future for our selfish needs today. Is this because Obama know's there is no future.

Use Green to be green, it is a positive start against global warming.

[pathfinderdaddy]

He's a two faced, ass kissing, lying crack smoker.

Ask Larry Sinclair.

Do a search.

L A R R Y S I N C L A I R

[SirRictor]

Technically he says that legalizing it wouldn't help grow the economy. Sadly that is probably true. I don't see it growing the economy much as it is already an extremely popular drug.

That said, legalizing it is a total no brainer - and I think not doing so is a real shame. I mean really, what is the problem with pot?

[HashburyNews]

the reason it WILL grow the economy is because it;s not just a plant to smoke, it;s the most important plant on the planet, THAT's why it;s illegal, the corporations don't want the competition.

fuel paper fiber food medicine, educate yourself.

and google cannabis oil cures cancer, harvard study

[jhaze918]

@HashburyNews great video and great information...its a damn shanme...all those politicians in the background laughing their asses off...do you think even one of them knows what hemp is? are these people even educated about america, our laws, the constitution? they really dont..hemp is serious, helped build this country...they wouldnt even have the job they have without it...and all they can do is laugh..whos running this country? im scared, i really am

[pathfinderdaddy]

One problem with pot is it grows where coca and opium won't. It would be hard to regulate the taxation of it. The Bush Crime Cartel is having enough problems controlling the worldwide drug rackets. Another problem is that it allows the removing of the veil of deception that "they" use to keep the world from seeing reality.

[fudge1monkey]

@SirRictor

you disagree with a very experienced economist? on what grounds?

[therealdenver]

remember now, he's just a mask.

all these side issues are used to control us an keep us blind sided.

legalize and decriminalize all drugs

[IllicitGreen]

fuck you obama you dont know shit. who has the most to gain by keeping weed illegal? the general populace? hardly. how bout the alcohol, tobacco, and timber industries?

[ALITL8]

you forgot big oil, dupont and the like, cotton and the pharmaceutical industry?

[bwanimals1]

legalize. there is no arguement against it that cannot be turned right around

[illilifilirx]

i wish obama could watch this video.

everyone thinks weed is a joke this is the real deal. people need to wake up....

[teebs70]

Who pulls your strings Puppet-Obama...?

This world is fast becoming an Orwellian state-controlled nightmare where common sense and kindness are replaced by fascist tyrannical rule over all.

To hell in a hand-basket...

[moteurhead1]

Okay Obama, let me ask you this....would $77 billion hurt the economy? If I needed a $100 but only got $10 then I'd only need $90. Make sense? Any step in the right direction is progress. Maybe you should smoke some MJ, might come up with a "good" idea....schmuck.

[enjoypot]

goodluck getting votes from the "online" audience next election

[tbone4202008]

dude if every stoner or mj user started growing today we could over grow the govrment in 6 mounths weed should be legal we could over grow ppl easy

[scottrex33]

quit being afraid everyone. we are the majority. lets just rase our fingers to judges and prosecutes and our peers. We are here and we are hi. get used to it!
