The Truth About Hemp (And Why Big Business Doesn’t Want You to Know It)

 

Is a hemp-fueled utopia only a pipe dream? Or could hemp legitimately save the planet?

 

Did you know that the hemp plant can be used for between 25,000 and 50,000 products? Not just today, either. Historically speaking, hemp was a lifesaver and it signaled the expansion of the world and even expansion of the mind.

 

However, the big businesses that influence every decision made in our country hate competition and have led the charge in a propaganda war against the plant. Corporatism strikes again!

 

Here’s the truth about hemp – and why Big Business doesn’t want you to know.

First – Hemp Cannot Get You High

 

Hemp and marijuana are two different plants! They are in the same family but are different plants. The only “euphoria” you can get from hemp is the giddy feeling you get when you dream of a world run on hemp and what a godsend this magical plant is.

 

But I promise that’s it. You would have to smoke 2,500 pounds to get high and, of course, that’s humanly impossible. It is only a calculated, 90-year smear campaign against cannabis that propagates such silliness. The restrictions in the U.S. make hemp seem otherworldly when in reality it was among the most ubiquitous materials in history.

 

Hemp is simply a variety of Cannabis sativa a.k.a. Indian hemp or industrial hemp. It is bred for industrial use. Marijuana (C. Sativa, C. Indica or C. Ruderalis) is a name for a strain of C. Sativa that has the frosty, flowering buds where all the resin (cannabin) hangs out. That’s where the tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is, and that’s the stuff that gets you high. Both plants contain some THC, but believe me, “Puff the Magic Dragon” wasn’t code for hemp!

 

Both plants have cannabinoids and both have THC, but hemp is better known for its cannabinoids and that’s why it is used to make CBD oil (which doesn’t get you high).

Hemp’s Origins – in the World and U.S.

 

As far as written history goes, we owe hemp’s origins to Central Asia with their fiber cultivation as early as 2800 B.C., but there have been Chinese fibers discovered as old as 10,000 years. Hemp production found its way to the Mediterranean and Europe around 100 A.D. and blossomed in the middle ages. Later it was planted in Chile and came over to America with the Puritans – both in the ship and as ships’ sails – where it became a staple of the U.S. until about WW2. You may have heard that the Declaration of Independence was penned on hemp paper.

 

Unfortunately, industrial hemp agriculture became highly taxed in 1937 and pretty much eradicated industrial crops. You can read about the conspiracy to end hemp production in The Emperor Wears No Clothes, by Jack Herer. About 30 states have some laws allowing some cultivation of hemp but zero-tolerance THC regulation and pressure from the DEA makes it difficult to really fire up the economy with hemp.

Leadership spill: Malcolm Turnbull fights for survival as he refuses to accept ministers' resignations

 

Malcolm Turnbull has seen off one leadership challenge but could face another within weeks as ministers who voted against him offered their resignations.

 

The prime minister defeated ex-Home Affairs minister Peter Dutton 48 votes to 35 in a snap leadership ballot yesterday morning, and then appealed for the party to unify.

 

"We know that disunity undermines the ability of any government to get its job done," Mr Turnbull told reporters.

‘Very, Very Damaging’: Second Referendum Could Lead to Civil Disobedience, Warns Top Labour MP

 

Labour frontbencher Barry Gardiner warned against holding a second referendum on the question of Brexit Tuesday morning, arguing the importance of supporting democratic norms and legitimacy.

 

Speaking on BBC Radio 4’s Today Programme, the shadow International Trade Secretary said if the government decided to ignore the referendum and call a new vote to get a different result it would undermine faith in democracy.

 

Warning that if the public lost faith in democratic processes they could turn to other means, Gardiner noted this could include “socially disruptive” civil disobedience, but rejected the suggestion by the BBC host that he was implying this could involve violence.

Drugs Gang Jailed After Heroin Supply ‘Explosion’ in Khan’s London

 

Police have welcomed the jailing of a drugs gang behind an “awful explosion” of Class A drugs in Whitechapel as an “incredible result” which will “severely disrupt the supply”.

 

Following an undercover operation in which detectives posed as drugs users, 16 men have been sentenced to a total of 49 years for charges including the supply of heroin and crack cocaine.

 

At Snaresbrook Crown Court, the judge handed jail sentences of between two years and 56 months, though prisoners in Britain typically serve just half of their term, when the system paroles criminals automatically.

 

The East London Advertiser reports gang members took advantage of BT phone boxes with free-of-charge calls for the first few minutes to arrange drug deals, and that the operation the gang ‘would have made £1.28 million’ on one ‘line’ of drugs trading alone, according to prosecutor Baba Tunde Alabi.

The “dependent victim” psyop

 

ANY person who exits an “officially designated victim-group”…and then succeeds in life on his own…and then goes one step further and refuses to identify his entire existence with his former group…but instead stands as a unique individual…why, that person, at the very least, must be a criminal, if not a terrorist, right?

 

That’s the crux of the issue: never leave your group.

 

That’s how society, civilization, and culture are promoted these days.

 

“Groups have needs, agendas, and problems, and the solution will come from government.” That’s the all-embracing formula.

 

The fake appearance is: victim groups are fighting for recognition and special status, and the government is pushing back—but that’s now a ruse. That’s a cover story. In fact, victim groups and government have the same goal: a relationship based on dependence. One side depends and the other side gives and protects.

 

The individual is out of the equation. He is portrayed as the greed-obsessed reason these victim groups exist and need help in the first place.

 

Banks, Wall Street, and mega-corporations are depicted as the end result of individualism.

 

In fact, government, banks, Wall Street, and mega-corporations are joined at the hip. They brush each other’s teeth first thing every morning.

 

Political correctness and the burgeoning movement to outlaw “offensive language” are merely tactics to: preserve groups’ separate identities; foment conflict between them; and ultimately foster their dependence on government authority.

 

The truth is, you can’t get free individuals to depend on government. Only “besieged groups” can be relied on for that purpose.

 

In the State’s eyes, a perfect society would be composed of groups who have entirely forgotten the concept of the individual, as if it never existed.

Super-hawk John Bolton and ‘Agent Butina’ connection is the Democrats’ new Russiagate target

 

More than eighteen months into Russiagate and with little evidence of ‘collusion’ between Donald Trump and Russia coming to light, Democrats seem to be scrambling for wins — and no one appears to be off-limits.

 

The latest target is none other than Trump’s National Security Advisor John Bolton, who until this point has been widely regarded in liberal and media circles as the most enthusiastic Russia hawk in the administration. Indeed, Bolton has been described as “a life-long Russia hawk” by the Financial Times, a “fierce Russia hawk” by Bloomberg and “one of the Kremlin’s harshest critics” by Voice of America.

 

But it appears that, when it comes to his Russia-hating credentials, Bolton does not have an entirely clean record. It turns out that, in 2013, Bolton appeared by video-link at a conference organized by a Russian gun rights activist at the request of the former National Rifle Association President David Keene.

 

That alone would probably be enough to send some Democrats into a frenzy, but it gets worse. The Russian in question just so happens to be Maria Butina, the woman who was charged in the US in July with acting as an agent for the Russian government. In the video, Bolton expresses support for amending the Russian constitution to expand gun rights (American meddling?!).

 

“Were the Russian national government to grant a broader right to bear arms to its people, it would be creating a partnership with its citizens that would better allow for the protection of mothers, children and families without in any way compromising the integrity of the Russian state. That is my wish and my advice to your great people,” Bolton said on video, apparently unaware that any kind of friendly demeanor towards Russians could come back to bite him later on.

 

Outraged, top Democrats who sit on the House Oversight Committee now want to know if Bolton told the White House about this contact with Butina before he was appointed to his current role as national security advisor.

 

In a dramatic letter to White House Chief of Staff John Kelly, Representatives Elijah Cummings (D-Maryland) and Stephen Lynch (D-Massachusetts) said that Bolton’s flimsy connection to Butina was “alarming and unprecedented” and requested that the White House provide documents to prove whether or not Trump’s security advisor disclosed his “previous work” with the alleged Russian spy.

 

Surprisingly, however, this isn’t the first time the Russiagate aficionados have targeted Bolton. Back in April, NBC News attempted to link the hawkish character to Russia in a piece about his involvement with the Gladstone Institute, an anti-Muslim nonprofit organization that had been “amplified by a Russian troll factory” online.

The author of the NBC report pointed out that some of the Gladstone authors had appeared on RT, which therefore, somehow, was evidence of Bolton’s ties to Russia. The author also pointed out that some suspected Russian trolls had retweeted Gladstone articles on Twitter — more ironclad proof there, if ever it was needed.

 

Unfortunately for collusion enthusiasts, Bolton’s actual ‘ties’ to Russia remain fairly tenuous and the latest attempt to brand him as some kind of Russian dupe looks awfully desperate.

Lavrov slams London’s attempts to dictate policy on Russia to US and EU

 

Lavrov has commented on UK Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt’s plans to persuade US President Donald Trump to expand the sanctions

 

SOCHI, August 21. /TASS/. The UK, which is calling for tougher sanctions against Russia, is trying to dictate foreign policy to the US and the European Union, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said on Tuesday.

 

"Our British counterparts have pretty high self-esteem," Lavrov said commenting on UK Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt’s plans to persuade US President Donald Trump to expand these sanctions.

 

"The country, which is leaving the EU as part of Brexit, is trying to dictate foreign policy to the EU, and now it turns out that London wants to dictate foreign policy with regard to Russia to Washington as well."

 

According to Lavrov, "London is doing the same thing in relations with Europeans, demanding tougher sanctions from them citing the Salisbury incident, which has not been investigated to date." "When British reporters asked him [Hunt] whether there was any progress in investigating that incident, he did not know what to answer journalists from his own country," Russia’s top diplomat added.

 

Speaking at the United States Institute of Peace in Washington, DC, Hunt earlier urged the European Union to ensure the implementation of a comprehensive package of sanctions against Russia.
