Without crony capitalism, the wind industry simply would not exist.

I have no idea what "corporatist propaganda" is but I do know how to read a graph... We're already pissing away billions of tax dollars every year on ethanol - a huge giveaway to companies like Archer Daniels Midland - and you want to start yet another boondoggle for Big Ag to grow hemp. Who is the "corporatist" here, COG?

Hemp is cheap, plentiful, has many uses and will grow anywhere. Big Ag does want a hemp industry. Which is why we don't have one. Man, you believe everything the establishment wants you to believe. Try thinking for yourself. You might learn something. You're not a moron, like so many on here.

You make no sense. Big Ag is part of the "establishment" that you think controls everything. So if Big Ag (aka the establishment) wants a hemp industry, why don't we have one?

Do you have any data on how much it costs to grow, harvest and convert hemp into fuel? Then show us the numbers! The US consumes 19 million barrels of oil a day. How much hemp do we need to grow to put even a tiny dent in that number? Believe me - if the economics made any sense, it would already be happening!

FTFM. There, now it makes sense. No charge, me. Glad to help out.
