These days, when I buy Sudafed, I have to show my driver's licence. I've always assumed that this goes into a database and if I'm buying a huge amount, the police may investigate.
From this news-article, I now understand that the rules are not what I had imagined (at least in Indiana)
The laws vary across states. In a somewhat related article, someone suggests that the average Joe commits three felonies a day. This post has been edited by softwareNerd: Sep 28 2009, 01:55 PM -------------------- | Blog |
"...ideas of economists and political philosophers, whether right or wrong, are more powerful than is commonly understood. In reality, the world is ruled by little else. Practical men (and women), who believe themselves quite untouched by any such intellectual influence, are usually slaves of some dead economist. " - John M. Keynes |

I can't say I'm suprised, a government with the goals that ours is pursuing has a stake in making sure every single citizen is a criminal so they can simply be detained whenever it suits whoever is in power. As I say that I can't help but think of how paranoid I believed people who talked that way to be.. now, I'm afraid it has become reality. -------------------- "You will be always victorious if you will never enter into any contest where the issue does not wholly depend upon yourself."

I think it is honestly to limit the use of those drugs in the making of Meth. But the government went too far in the prevention and made ridiculosu rules that persecute normal people. Also it is interesting to note that this rule is part of the Combat Methamphetamine Epidemic Act of 2005, a part of the PATRIOT Act
-------------------- This information is placed here for the multitude of God/religion topics.
God is supernatural by definition. Since the supernatural is that beyond nature, i.e. beyond reality no thing said to be supernatural can exist. Therefore either a "God" is not supernatural and thus not a God or God does not exist. If God did exist, violating this fundamental law of reality, all basis for reality and reason would be rendered useless. Since that makes our existence impossible God does not exist and the belief in a supernatural God undermines our ability to live when that belief's nature is understood. |
