Hemp
Autor Nini Martino, Zack Dilibertoen Limba Engleză Paperback
With recent breakthroughs in hemp-processing, and rumors of Henry Ford's 'hemp-mobile' materializing, hemp is now an imminent threat to Big Oil and its allies. The war on hemp begins, wrought with coincidence: The repeal of Prohibition leaves its disciples without a cause; and the vilified drug, marijuana, is falsely equated with industrial hemp. A frustrated prohibitionist, Harry Anslinger, is appointed chief of the Federal Bureau of Narcotics; and Prohibition is back - hemp, tagged as marijuana, its new target
The Burnetts' loss becomes the reader's outrage, as "HEMP" uncovers an ugly American secret: Acting solely to further their own interests, a conspiracy of powerful, greedy tycoons and their fanatical, federal pawn systematically outlawed the industrial hemp plant, and with it, the world's greenest, cheapest, alternative source to petro-chemical and tree-paper products ...And got away with it - 72 years, and counting
Based on actual events, and documented Congressional testimony.
"TIMELY AND RELEVANT - END THE DEBATE THE ANSWER TO OUR ENERGY WOES IS, AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN, HEMP "
