I have a bit of a cold and it came with a major sinus headache. So, that's no problemo, right? Just take a few cold pills, sinuses come back into line, and then headache goes away. Its a plan. So I went to the drug store and walked over to the cold pill aisle . . . and then remembered THE STUPID COLD PILL RESTRICTION. I hate that.
Honestly, I do not believe that tracking my cold pill usage is going to prevent anyone from becoming a meth addict. It certainly doesn't treat people who are already meth addicts. It's just more government bureaucracy -- one more way for the government to keep tabs on my business. If Americans can get Viagara in Canada, why couldn't or wouldn't they get cold pills there? And when was the last time passing a law curbed street drug use?
I should be able to walk over to the aisle, pick up what I need, pay for it, and leave. But nooooooo. I have to go to the pharmacy, wait in line, convince some grumpy old pharmacy tech that I want what I want and not what she wants for me, hand over my driver's license, then pay and leave. What a pain in the ass.

You should vote for Ron Paul. He hates the government too.
I hate stupidity. In this case, stupidity happens to overlap with the government's pro-cold policies. I like a lot of things the government does for me -- an example would be ticketing college student cars that block my driveway.
