Pot is illegal and those that want to smoke it are not swayed by a law. [...] My view is if it grows from the ground, then who cares. All of those other drugs made from over-the-counter meds or from chemicals are manufactured substances and ought to be regulated

Regulated, or prohibited? Those that want to use manufactured drugs are also not swayed by a law.

“Regulated, or prohibited? Those that want to use manufactured drugs are also not swayed by a law”

No they are not. No law stops everything. Prohibiting those ingredients arent possible because they have legal applications. But the stuff needed to make Meth and these other manufactured illegal drugs cant just be bought from the local grocery or garden center and mixed together. 99% of the time the stuff in it is made by only a few companies, and has to be driven over state lines. Much easier a target for the DEA to have their “war” on.
