Does the government have the right to alert and/or protect the populace from tampered with and/or tainted foodstuffs? What about the government outing what's in patent medicines, which didn't cure anything, either turned users into alcoholics and/or hooked them on opiates or some other narcotic,and often killed the users?
I didn't mention guns. I didn't talk about complete government control over what people should eat, drink, or use/own.
And it's de riguer for sarcastic posts to be so identified, which you didn't bother to do.
You bet your sweet bippy it does.
And to control guns, and to control alcohol and tobacco, and to make sure people don't do anything government doesn't approve of.
I always use that "it's for the children" line, but you republicans and your "compassionate conservatism" sound like you've got the same angle covered.
And the social programs!
I could just kiss every one of you.
Keep up the good work.
Your pal,
