Legalize Hemp, fund tax breaks/incentives/grants for production of hemp products, focusing primarily on paper products

Created by M.S. on April 23, 2015

The benefits of the legalization of Hemp are too numerous to list and are well documented, the information of which is available at the click of a mouse. The U.S. is already one of if not the largest importer of Hemp products, so the demand is evident. There will be job creation in the farming, processing, manufacturing and retail sectors of the economy. Reduction in the destruction of valuable forest environments for the production of products that Hemp could produce just as effectively. Slight shift of American productivity from the service industry to manufacturing and trade industries. (possible)Elimination of farm subsidies. A chance for the middle class to improve their standing. An opportunity to help struggling communities like Detroit by bringing manufacturing back to America.
