Wow! You know if an enterprising person knew how to make his own Sudafed, he could make a ton of money without nearly the legal risk of being involved in the ilicit drug trade.
No, they're worried she is going to cook meth.
It was a provision of the Patriot Act.
I can pick up prescription medicine w/o showing ID. To buy OTC cold medicine with Sudafed I have to show ID and the pharmacist has to take all my info and log what I bought.

I was very much for keeping track of the otc meds when it first came out about five years ago. Anything to get that nasty stuff off the streets, but that is also why I call shenanigans on Scott's privacy concerns. Anyone who can't use the fake sudafed, like me, is already having their privacy invaded to be able to control their allergies.![]()
I don't think he feels disdain for public employees, he just doesn't trust their unions. Right so too, like all special interests they should not be allowed dictate policy within our political system. If you're curious about the negative side effects of unions run amuck in a political system, look at states like California.
Scott is an important check in a set of checks and balances.
I do not think that the Pseudoephedrine purchases goes into a State database. I believe it is just a log that a pharmacy is required to maintain just like then use to do for paregoric. I could be wrong but only the Board of Pharmacy has access to those logs. Law enforcement must have a suponea to get access to those logs. Pharmacies are audited by the BOP regularly for many things including Oxycontin and other Class II narcotics. I am retired now but my pharmacy was audited every six months (I was lucky in having a location so close to the BOP-not) to determine what Doctors are writing prescriptions for control substances. They were more concerned with finding bad Doctors than finding bad patients. As a pharmacist it was not that difficult to know when there was a forgery although it did happen from time to time. I also think that patients needing pain management are finding it easier to just die and that is very sad. Point is that you just can not regulate everything because eventually you will need someone to regulate the regulators. There is plenty of regulation in this industry. South Florida may be an exception to the rule just like the oil drillers are to the Gulf of Mexico.And it all goes into a big state database....:shock:
What's 3 check?
Give Rick Scott sole authority to appoint Florida judges
A move to restructure the Florida court system, giving more power in choosing judges to Gov. Rick Scott, moved forward in the state House Thursday despite objections that the bills are an attempt to take control of the state judiciary.
The House Civil Justice Committee passed the three bills Thursday afternoon, all opposed by the committee's five Democrats and backed by its 10 Republicans, including Shawn Harrison of Tampa.
Other committee stops and action by the full House and Senate would be needed to pass them. They are:
?An amendment to break the state Supreme Court in two, one court for criminal cases and one for civil cases, adding three justices so each would have five.
* An amendment to abolish the judicial nominating commissions that submit nominees for appeals court and Supreme Court justices.
* The governor would then have sole power to name justices, but the state Senate would have to confirm them. Proponents said it models the federal process for naming justices.
* A bill not requiring an amendment that gives the governor sole power to appoint all members of the judicial nominating commissions that submit nominees for trial court seats
