Of course government is going to attack anything that's natural. Big Pharma can't make money to fund big government if it grows naturally! And big pharma's only goal is to get us so hooked on chemicals because there's no money in finding a cure for anything.
In my old home town, we were actually banned from growing food in our back yard. Additionally, we weren't allowed to hang out clothes out on a line either. And no, I did not live in a gated community with HOA bullshit.
What a sad time we live in.
