Hemp for Victory - Entire Film - US Government asks farmers to grow it

Produced by the US Government in 1942...Interesting to learn that Dupont Chemical funded the anti- hemp / marijuana effort. This is because they had patents on new synthetic fibers and Hemp had a new machine that would put them out of business if hemp were to be used for clothes. Dupont also sold - and still does many of the chemicals to wood pulp producers... so we continue to cut down forests... when Hemp could save millions of trees, be used as an alternative bio fuel and the US could easily grow enough hemp to eliminate the need for oil... so Big oil does not want hemp legal either. Neither do the drug companies... they can't patent it. They would rather keep selling you their drugs. By keeping it illegal the lawyers, courts etc... also make a buck. You can only get high from the female flower - nobody has ever died from smoking a joint. Of course the alcohol and tobacco companies would prefer to keep their monopoly as well. So we have all the BIG Corporate players... against legalizing it. Yet if it were legalized - we would solve many issues and have a multi billion dollar hemp economy as it can be used for 1000's of products. A few other good films to watch are run from the cure & hemp conspiracy - Google it!

jordangkc has made a comment on Hemp for Victory - Entire Film - US Government asks farmers to grow it:

O.K. why does nobody ever talk about this film? Hemp was put under for the industrial revolution now oil companies run the government and keep the people from running our own country even Thomas Jefferson knew we kneed to change the constitution as time changes

I don't know why "comment removed" so I am putting back up - good comment - good point.

was that a sailor falling of the sails at 13:13? Anyway its something like one hemp plant would save 12 trees, and two plants can be grown in 1 year versus many for a tree. Yeah thats adds up to alot of earths lungs being saved. Bring back the Hemp!
