Paying Drug Abusers to be Sterilized

[Wheetsin 714]

The pharmacies have to keep the Sudafed under lock and key now, and limit the number of packages you can buy at one time.

They were doing this with any cold medicine last I tried to buy it. Maybe they've changed something, I have not kept up to date. Anyway, the store where I went had a "two bottles at one time" purchase limit. But they were out of individual bottles, and only had packages of two bottles together, two day and two night (not one of each, that would be way too convenient). I wanted to get one day and one night, of course. But they wouldn't let me. SInce they were pre-packaged as two, buying either one put me at my daily limit so I couldn't buy both. I told her I would go through the line twice, or go through a different line, whatever it took, but my husband was sick and I was going to get him some medicine. She called the store manager. Long story short, I left, went to a different store across the street, and bought it there. If I'd really been determined to buy the medicine from that particular store, I easily could have just self checked out two different transactions.

Most of the takers will not be those who top the IQ charts. They will take the check, but years later after they get off drugs, they can sue. They will claim that they were baited into accepting the money, and that nobody fully explained it. The state will be forced to pay for fertility treatments. It happens!

I am in favor of sterilization for all. The world is too crowded as it is. It is true that anyone can reproduce, but just because you can does not mean you should.
