Idea Description
Hemp has long been known as a superior fiber to many mass produced products for sale today. I would put hemp back in the spotlight. Hemp paper lasts longer and is better for the environment than wood-pulp, cotton and even recycled paper. Hemp rope is stronger, hemp clothes can be safer and more comfortable than wool with many of the same benefits. It can even be made into ethanol! The list goes on and on...
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
Build a business plan and start manufacturing our products.
Vote for it now.
Everything you say about hemp is correct. There is an industry that already exists to manufacture clothing and even hempseed candy and hemp seeds used in bird food and probaby many more products that I don't know about. Where do they get their hemp cloth and seeds?
They have to buy their hemp from another country, such as China.
I love this idea!! Maybe instead of the government paying corporate and other farmers not to grow crops, the land could be used to grow hemp and create a new industry in the US with jobs for Americans.
im pretty sure this is why it was outlawed in the first place (marijuana/hemp). it was competing too well with businesses that already existed (you mentioned them in your description) and was also used to crack down on minorities of the time (marijuana). this may be a matter of opinion but if you do the research the facts are there. in short, i'd love to see it happen. good luck
