A super easy way to contact your local "Representative"

I sent:

Please visithttp://www.TheTruthAboutHemp.com
Please consider cosponsoring HR 1009, the Industrial Hemp Farming Act of
2007. And Mr. Frank's HR 5843.
This will save billions and free up police
for real crime.

Let's see - we have $5/gallon gasoline, a collapsing dollar, war in
the Middle East, Iran building nukes, and problems on our border with
Mexico. Nice to see that you have your priorities straight... :O|


t seems few people outside of the county of Mendocino realize that
the
main economy of the county revolves around local residents deriving an
income from pot cultivation. If it ends the economy of the county
will do
a rapid crash and burn. Local prices at all the retail stores will
rise and
so many local pot farmers will sell their homes and move to either
Humbolt
or Sonoma counties where the law as well as local people look the
other way
and even medical pot growers in both of those counties have a much
higher number
allowed to grow as with Mendocino had/has currently 25 plants and a
voted measure
B lowered it to 6 plants. The other two counties allow 99 and 100
plants to be grown
by legal medical pot growers. Mendocino county has For Sale signs all
over the place
even though measure B has been declared by the courts as being
unconstitutional most
of the local growers legal and/or otherwise are selling and moving to
the two counties so
as to have things function in an economy they can live with. I'm sure
many will argue on
all this so go for it until you are worn out on the pros and cons of
it all.

I say California should legalize it, grow it as a cash crop like
grapes to wine are grown
for commercial and medical use, tax it and the state makes its budget
balanced ++++
and the criminal elements and other complaints you make about growing
it will vanish
because the state will license growers and supervise the way it is
produced.


I agree 100% but until the Federal Government can be persuaded to a
non-interventionist stance the state data on taxes and so forth would just
be used to oppress the people producing the income via cannabis.
