After Europe more or less banned aspirin (rationed it down to customers being allowed to buy a few tablets per day)

Well, of course. The rules for aspirin are widely available, they are more or less the same for all of the EU. When Obama manages to fully transform the US, they’ll probably be the same over there. 24 tablets can be bought per day, and a system of enforcement.

As is, I get Mesta to buy my quarterly chunks of stuff at walmart and send to me - it has to be sent as a gift, American vendors cannot sell to EU past their regulations.

This is my earlier clash with the goons when I really needed painkillers:
