Where did all the freedom go ?

Wheres all the greatness at ?

Surely it's buried somewhere underneath all this greed and power lust ?

This problem is as simple as:

1. Allow domestic hemp products starting with 1% tax at manufacturing level, so as not to bother retailers and consumers with paperwork and rules and penalties.

2. Give said 1% to state governments, to mitigate any negative side effects aka a pigouvian tax. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pigouvian_tax)

3. Have CBO rescore every year, adjust tax every 4 years, as part of the farm bill process.

Anything else is a power grab, a money grab, or hysteria.

US history is one of robber barrons and regulatory capture.

Change it.
