stupid politician tricks ping
Denny Crane: "I look to two things: First to God and then to Fox News."
North Dakota has the cold medicine law too. It's ridiculous.
I live in an Indiana county right across the Illinois boarder that also happens to have one of the highest rate of meth lab busts in the nation.
To prevent people from making meth, the County Commissioners enacted a law where if you buy Sudafed, your name and address are sent to the prosecutors office, where it remains on a list. Supposedly, this will prevent future meth labs.
Apparently Oregon has the meds law too. I went into one of our local stores for Sudafed sinus meds and had to go to the pharmacist to get what I use to be able to pick up off the shelf. I didn't have to fill out any paperwork or give an address, but they did refuse to let me do any other shopping until I paid for it there.
I thought modern detergents did not require hot water. We seldom, seldom ever was in hot water. I guess it doesn't matter. The state gets another item to make the practice of serving the public more difficult. We know who is really supposed to service the public.
I'd vote for that.
Then again, how about a new law making politicians illegal. lol
I'd vote for that too.
The solution is to put a per-word tax on legislation, to be paid by the legislators. A bill passes the House? That will be $439.07, from every member.
Can I also complain about toilet laws?
When I'm pregnant my BMs get, um, really big and bulky--something about the digestive system slowing down.
Yesterday it took me THREE flushes, not two, to do my business without stopping up the toilet.
This is what I've been saying for a long time and it is the reason that Congressional sessions and State Legislatures should be limited to about 6 months every other year. We don't need these fools in session year-round passing pointless, stupid, foolish and unenforceable laws.
That stupid cold medicine law in PA is costing me time and money. Both my hubby and I have chronic allergies and sinus problems. We need daytime, non-drowsy sinus meds, nighttime sinus meds, and over-the-counter Claritin. All of these only come in boxes of 24 at the Target where I shop. Now, I have to buy two boxes at Target, then drive across town to buy the remainder at a more expensive drug store.
Last time I was prohibited from buying the legal products we need at Target, I mentioned to the cashier that this wasn't stopping meth dealers -- just costing law-abiding citizens. She tried to give me a line that the ban was not about meth, but about little kids, who might take too much cold medicine. Un-xxx-believable.
