The thing that bothers me is how groups like NORML have taken this issue on as one that can benefit man. It can make paper, books, shirts.......hell they act as if pot can make cars too. Their position is just as suspect as our lawmakers. People who want pot legalized don't want to be legal so they can wear a hemp shirt. They want to smoke dope!!! It bothers me that they use these other issues to cloak what their real desires are. Thats not to say that hemp couldn't do much of what they say in terms of paper etc. The problem is we have people on both sides of the issue using rhetoric to hide behind the truth. The truth is.......use of pot, beer, food, sex (well..lets leave sex out of this because I believe in its use early and often) to an extreme will not result in good things. That said....people have to make those choices - its called FREEDOM. We have a military that kills people to make sure we have Our FREEDOM. Since thats the case lets not allow the disinformation of "REFER MADNESS" or the "Pot can solve all the worlds problems" campaign cloud the issues. The issues are

responsibility and freedom
