Why Is Weed Illegal?

This easy-to-read volume opens with a brief history of cannabis law in the United States, starting with pre-Revolution days. Early planters could be prosecuted for failing to meet the required allotments of Indian Hempseed! The majority of the text contains a timeline correlating, among other things, the so-called War on Drugs, the Federal Reserve Board, Nazi infiltration and the growth of the military/industrial complex. This is a must-read for those who understand that it doesn't matter which political party is in power, "big business" is and always has been in charge. Sheila Richburg is dedicated to the concept that knowledge is power. With that in mind, she has compiled this volume in the hopes that it will clear up some of the negative propaganda that has found its way into the mainstream media.
