hemp was used during the cicil war for many purposes, heating oil, clothing, etc. It is one of the main reasons the north won the war.
But since it can be used as a subsitute for energy the oil barons decided to make it illegal.
that's the real reason its illegal, smoking has nothing to do with it.
