The USA is a big market for industrial hemp.  We currently subsidize farmers to grow shit we don't need like corn, while prohibiting them from growing something that we actually DO need and DO USE - we import it from other countries, and yet prohibit our farmers from growing it.  Legalization would help alleviate our trade deficit somewhat.

Here's a great informational and political action website about the industrial hemp situation:

synthetics are already better than hemp and don't disturb the land as much.  besides, everyone knows that farmers just want to grow hemp so they can mix in a row of higher THC plants.
