Dear The USDA,

Hemp/weed/ or whatever you want to reference it by, is a Naturally growing plant on all six continents, it makes really good rope, and has for centuries, it also has medicinal value, Native Americans used it for healing and feeding issues for several thousand years, and they turned out ok. If we stop trying to suck profit out of this product and really worked to help those with serious health issues, this country would become a leader in the health of its citizens, again.  While big agricultural giants want the money, small growers/producers are the true answer to the distribution of product in markets when big agricultural companies have not outlets, and with a streamlined less regulator mulipulation, it will make access to product easier to afford. 

While I do not have the “Farmbill” readily available, if big agricultural interest rule then the entire purpose of what small town and small businessmen need will be lost. It is time to think smaller not bigger, we mom/pop people whether users or supporters know more about what is req hired in our communities than big agricultural mega businesses. It is that simple.

Sincerely,
