I fondly remember when Nyquil actually worked—and helped me get much-needed sleep.

Yes, but if they turn these drugs into prescription drugs doesn’t that mean that health insurance will have to help pay for them?

I feel like a criminal every time I have to show my I.D. and sign for a pack of the original Sudafed formula that works. Now Mama Feinstein wants to make it prescription only?

I keep wondering if every socialist were ever to control our lives to their standards, would they then be satisfied? I doubt it.

I remember a few years ago, I was trying to buy some Claritin for my husband who has been told by his doctor to take one daily for his sinuses. I was pregnant and having a few things to think about besides remembering the precise date I had last bought him a pack, I got flagged and rudely treated by the Target employee at the pharmacy. It struck me that if I had come in and asked them for drugs to abort my baby, not only would they have been required to give them to me, that employee probably would have lost his job/license for treating me the same way. What a screwed up world...

The low info voter actually think these people are working for them.

But because a prescription requirement won't hamper Mexican cartels, why stick it to law-abiding Americans?

Because the law-abiding are the easiest to control.

[Dogbert41]

And yet requiring a simple I.D. to vote is outrageous?

[Iron Munro]

This is the way all leftists attack problems of criminality and deviate behavior.

They blame the tool or product and punish the innocent rather than the guilty.

It is exactly the same technique Feinstein and other democrats are trying to use to control guns.

[Drew68]

Good for Feinstein. Meth is some nasty stuff!

The asininity of federal and state restriction on OTC pseudoephedrine is just ridiculous. You would need to process several cases of these pills just to make a small amount of illicit drugs, and it would cost you ten times as much to do it that way.

So why not just prohibit the sale of several cases at a time?

Or even better, why not just not regulate something that needs no regulation, except for safety and effectiveness?

The dems in the TN State Legislature are trying to push this too. They tried before and lost, and I hope they lose again. I’ve been raising cain with my state rep. and senator, telling them to vote against this ridiculous idea.
It’s bad enough that I have to sign for a box of Sudafed. I’m darned if I’m going to pay for am office visit just to get a prescription. I haven’t been to a doctor since 2003.
I’m blessed with good health but do have allergies. Sudeafed relieves my sinus congestion when nose spray isn’t quite enough to do it.

This idea isn’t going to stop the meth-heads. They’ll find something else to use to make their poison.
