Hi Mark,
You make a good point but bureaucratic nonsense is all over the world. The funny thing is, every year (except this one) for the last 10 years or so we have gone to the US and I usually have a list for Walgreens from family, friends and myself for the over the counter Tylenol PM, Iprofen (sp?) and some of those baby products for my nieces and nephews that you simply can't get in Europe. I'm also aware of friends in Ireland sending folks in the US the likes of Nurofen Plus (paracetamol and 30mg of codeine) which you can buy over the counter here and in the US you need a precription for them. Thankfully though they have clamped down big time on that drugs availability over the counter and believe you me that's a good thing, there are so many people addicted to this drug that it has become a massive problem. It's almost as bad as an addiction to cocaine and there is no treatment for it, it's not recognised in the same way as addiction to opiates! There you go. If we had the FDA standards here it would never have made it to the shelves!
You're sick of a two horse race, democrats and republicans.... they're all the same no matter what way you look at it, there are a few good ones but most of them are not in Politics for the right reasons.
We will fight to live another day!
