not only would it help our economy perhaps by the billions but back when times were happy back in the early 1920&#039;s til the late 1920&#039;s and also in the eighties marijuana was widely accepted as a happy drug those were happy times and after the assassination of osama we are due to a few brief years of people feeling happy everything is kind of a go easy feeling every generation has a time like this. But to tell you the truth hemp would also save trees instead of using trees for paper we could use less paper for cigarettes and more hemp  for marijuana.Also not that it will help our economy but marijuana is a proven medical remidie for headaches and muscle pain it helps you relax and its astonishing how great the effects are on cancer patients wen before theyd never have an appetite and to go from that to marijuana which gives you the munchies its helped the process of cancer treatment and made it easier to keep the patients more healthy i strongly agree with Ron Paul</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>i believe he is truely right about the legalization of marijuana.<br

He just doesnt understand though that more then half of congress works for Hospitals and insurance companies.He has an innocent view of why politicians dont support medical marijuana. They dont support it because theyre being paid NOT to support it. Marijuana can treat and possibly cure many diseases. I mean HELL ITS A PLANT, a natural plant that helps glaucoma patients more then most man-made medicines.This doesnt help the Medical Indsutry, insurance companies, or hospitals.Hence it will NEVER ever be legal in the USA. And i do mean never.The only possible way i can for-see it becoming legal is if terrorists drop a nuclear bomb in Washinton D.C. And then we have to start from scratch.Its rediculous how corrupt politicians are. Truly disgusting.</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hemp or marijuana will never be legalized in the USA.</p><p>I support <a
