people will not follow this

It won't be aimed at individuals. It will be aimed at providers = stores. They can prohibit it that way, by restricting commerce -- making it illegal to sell specified products.

The pharma industry has been wanting 'controls' on herbals for a long time. Now, they are one step closer.

They have already done it with many OTC sinus and cold products. I have to show more ID to purchase those little red pseudoephedrine sinus tablets than I do to pick up my prescriptions.

You need to show more ID for a cough drop than Obama needs to show to be occupant of the White House, Commander in Chief, and caretaker of the big red nuclear button that could easily annihilate all life on the globe!

You do know that is to try to curb the manufacture of Meth, right? It has nothing to do with this legislation.

It's hard to be pleasant and give 4x forms of ID when yer blinded by a sinus attack. Those pills are a miracle.

And you can blame that on the folks who make methamphetamine, and the folks who learned nothing at all from Prohibition.
