I sympathize with your broader point, but... how is that better? "Sorry, you were buying too much nasal decongestant a decade ago, so no cancer medication for you"?
- PeeMcGee 2y agoI think they were deliberately pointing out the absurdity by comparing it to other far more dangerous things we just waive off if you have a license.
- otherme123 2y agoI understood your parent comment in a specific drug way: you can buy pseudo until your license to buy that specific compound, or maybe a group or related chemicals, is revoked. But you can still get any other compound. Not that different from current situation: we have all our "license" to buy scheduled compounds revoked, but we still can get a lot of other compounds.
