Or do you just like to stir the pot?

Are you complaining?? Yes, we do have an aversion to change. People complain about electric cars, and their batteries, etc. Am I stirring the pot? No! Hemp has very, very little THC. ;-)
If the housing contractors started using hemp to build houses, guess what happens, the price of wood comes down, and you get to build your work bench, OR, better yet, use hemp wood to build your work bench. Hemp, it's not just building blocks. Wood, clothing and other items are made from hemp.
