If legalized, authors say pot would be practically free

the good thing about pot is it can grow nearly anywhere.


You dont have to use the best farmland to produce great pot

Less high fructose corn syrup? Doesn't bother me at all.

And hemp can produce more biomass than virtually any plant in the US, and that can be used to produce fuel.

Multifluora rosa is even better for fuel. It produces far more biomass then hemp and can do it on non-aerable land.

They did and they had a point but corn has a huge economic lobby behind it. If they can establish an economic infrastructure for ethanol based on corn because of the political influence corn farmers have then I say "GREAT! Let's do it!!". Cause ulimately farmers and ethanol producers will eventually switch to the agricultural product which can provide the most cellulose for the least cost of production. That certainly won't be corn.

they used corn to make ethanol because we had tons and tons of surplus corn that farmers couldn't sell.....it makes sense to use what would otherwise go to waste....

Potheads have a reason to rejoice: Should their favorite herb become legal, there’s a very good chance it will also be dirt-cheap. The authors of a new book called "Marijuana Legalization: What Everyone Needs To Know" claim that because America’s farming techniques are some of the most productive in the world, prices could be less than $20 per pound for high-grade weed and less than $5 a pound for mid-grade stuff. They claim that joints would be so inexpensive, businesses could give them away as freely as they do ketchup packages or bar nuts. Bar joint, anyone? [Source]

Pot may be cheap, but Twinkies will be $5.00 each.
