Speech Topic: Legalization of Hemp

The legalization of the production of hemp in the United States and the positive affects it would have on our economy, the global food crisis, and cloth.  Hemp seeds can be used to help deal with the global food crisis and would creates large amounts of food for those who cannot afford it.  Hemp also creates a more durable longer lasting cloth.  Also the sale of Hemp is already legal in the United States but it is just the production of hemp that is not.  If we were to legalize the growth of Hemp which grows naturally in many of the climates of the United States we would be boosting our economy.  A bonus effect of growing hemp is that it naturally is a very bug resistant plant that is not fed on by very many insects at all, reducing the amount of pesticides that we use on our products significantly.

  1. Same thing with your research paper, make sure and give us the context. Why is hemp illegal? More specifically, what kind of bullshit had to happen for it to be legal to sell but not legal to grow?
