It's very popular these days to "conservative" bash (dog knows, I do my
share of it as well), but I wish Political Science 101, or even 99.5 was
taught more widely.
It's actually the trad *liberal* position to centralize government in
this fashion as well as expand its powers, expand the "nanny state," and
mandate this kind of control in people's lives. The trad *conservative*
position would be to make it all available, unregulated, and let people
make their own choices, informed or less so.

No Joe. It's interesting...his tome on his idealism. In 1993 APLA took me to meet Waxman in his office to "discuss" technical matters that he didn't seen to...
The semantics are screwed up. A true conservative wants government to stay out of controlling people's lives - I agree with them. Real liberals want to...
There's always Viprofen (narcotic with ibuprofen) and Empirin #3 (narcotic and aspirin) so it's not like there are no alternatives to using acetaminophen. My...
Ah, I at first requested Vicoprofen to avoid acetaminophen, but because it is kidney toxic, it raised my blood pressure A LOT. I'm not sure that it isn't more...

I learned a lot from this post. Thanks, Philip. Now, we have two political problems: 1. FDA shouldn't ban these painkillers combined with acetaminophen. I'm...
