But federal regulation says it does.
Smurfing is the practice of sending several people out to buy pseudoephedrine just a box or two at a time at a bunch of different stores. These federal id tracking requirements are an attempt to curb that.
- qorrect 5y agoAs others have said, how much does that really curtail the meth making in this country? I'd be surprised if it's over .1%. So everyone else has to jump through hoops so the agencies can claim a hollow victory. This type of thinking is rampant in the US and it gets so tiring.

- mycodesucks 5y agoHas anyone ever looked into the real effect laws like these this have? It's never really bothered me having to produce ID, but after thinking about it, I am curious as to how much these laws really help.
