    The whole prescription system is a rent-seeking scheme that enriches various middlemen, including your friend.

    How far have we fallen as a civilization that people have to meekly seek permission to take drugs? Bodily autonomy doesn’t extend to medicine, is that it? The unfathomable hypocrisy.

      I don’t think it’s perfect but I can’t agree with people being able to walk around buying any medication at anytime without any oversight.

        So are you a religious authoritarian or a garden variety fascist that you feel entitled to dictate to me what I can and cannot do with my body?

            Why not? Is addiction illegal? At most I’d say education about the medication should be more available.

            Edit obviously addiction is terrible but it’s a slippery slope to say " you can’t take this drug because of addiction risks" into “you can’t take this drug because I find it morally wrong”
