Disenfranchising Minorities

And from basic health care, at that:

If you purchase a consumer product in which pseudoephedrine is the only active ingredient, you are required to sign a log book that may be accessible to law enforcement officers and to provide a government-issued identification card to verify your identity.
Are you going to stand for that, Mr. Holder?

Bah, thats nothing! Oregon makes you get a doctor's prescription for sudafed on top of the Fed purchase rules. For me thats a $35 copay to visit the doc plus the meds.

Meth use is about the same level in Oregon 6 years later though.

I work in a pharmacy and some customers complain about the I.D. requirement and signing for the otherwise "over the counter" medication. I just tell them to get involved in the political process because like many other inconvenient rules and regulations we have to suffer, this one started out as the brain child of some politician who already thinks he's a genius.
