I would certainly like the federal government to get out of the business of regulating drugs, since it doesn't have a mandate under Art 1, Sec 8 of the Constitution to do so.

That is properly a State function of police powers.

Agreed-I’ve said this before, and I’ll say it again-I would like to see the federal government out of the business of regulating everything other than what the Constitution allows-period, no exceptions. I guess the thought of all that freedom (and the personal responsibility that goes with it) is just too scary for too many folks...

Agreed. Once the Federal government has usurped the power to regulate anything you willingly ingest, it has usurped the power to regulate everything you willingly ingest.
