RE: Cannabis the Cash Crop: Colorado Sales Above $100 Mil for 12 months straight

in #money8 years ago

learned years ago that cannabis was demonized for among other reasons its ability to be used to create the daily newspaper. this was a very cheap alternative to cutting down trees. but I guess the demonizing of cannabis by William R Hearst was more important than using a readily available resource that had been around since the days of George Washington

Sort:  

It's been used forever and ever, then all the sudden "We've got to ban this". I remember reading ol George used to smoke it for aches and pains.
