used to be in the early 1900's.. well hemp was
until the coton industry got scared when they feared the stronger fibers of hemp.. and cheaper costing too.. would run them out of business

so they lobbied congress at the time (paid hem off) and used the whole marijuana thing (i think.. could be wrong) to get it declared illegal
