#1 the crooks that steal them.

Are a Law fnforcement Problem, How about an Armed Lawman inside esch drugstore, instead of Looking for "Gun Conreol" Use "Criminal Control"?

But that wouldn't stop EEVIL GUNS, (crime). (Sarc)

#2 "If you break a leg, you're going to be in pain, nothing wrong with getting something that reduces the pain. But if you get 20 days worth of pills and you only need them three days, there's 17 days sitting there."

I can't wait until this asshole breaks a leg and they give him THREE DAYS worth of painkillers...

#4 Money quote: "supposing it is really true, so you didn't get enough painkillers and you did have to suffer a little bit."

Typical progressive attitude of 'we all have to suffer some for the good of the collective' - actual guilt is irrelevant. Somebody else got fat, I can't have a big soda. Somebody else shot a kid, I can't have my rifle. It NEVER ends.

#5 Well a new study says that three out of four people who end up in th emergency room have soda on a daily basis.

The obvious solution komrades would be a cup buy-back program. After 30 days police and certified public sugar deputies will be dispatched to search random blocks for high capacity styrofoam cups, with the authority to confiscate and arrest for other found contriband.

#7 He's an egomaniac. One of these days his subjects will have had enough of his decrees. Of course, free money will take a lot to overcome. But I have every confidence in the guy in this regard. He gets more and more emboldened every time his sheeple submit to his ever-more-insane ideas.

Or a modern German dentist. I discovered the hard way they don't believe in Novacain. It's related to cocaine, y'know... *shudder*
