The "War On Drugs" Is The Height Of Jackassness

Senate Okays Restrictions On Cold Medicines

This is not my first posting regarding this issue. Please see my "Me & Crystal Meth" for the initial interest.

So ridiculous. So wrong. Since pharmaceutical companies make so many pieces-of-shit over-the-counter medications, it is impossible to buy just one brand or version and have it work. This just makes ordinary people's lives all the more difficult and complicated, especially those who have no health insurance and are forced to rely on nothing but over-the-counter medications.

I hate the "war on drugs." All it produces are jackass-laws like these (including three-strikes legislation that disproportionately punishes the poor and people of color) and a climate of irrational fear in the population at large.
