You don't get to declare something is bad first without reasoning your way through it through a tested system like law. That's more or less anti Constitutional / American etc.
- iudqnolq 4y agoIt depends on the specifics. For example, suppose a drug cartel invents a new formula. The DEA gets to ban it under existing law. I'm not saying that's analogous. I'm merely providing a counterexample for your idea that the government always has to create custom laws whenever something new happens.

- iudqnolq 4y agoI agree. But it's pretty obvious they're legally allowed to do it.
