So, if a Pharmacy Lobbiest were to determine public policy, you wouldn't care
so long as the correct decision was reached. Hmmm, why not leave the parents
entirely out of the vaccine issue and let the correct decision be made by those
who know best?

Duh. You looked nothing up, or you wouldn't have asked such a stupid question.
I guess you know absolutely nothing about daycare centers.

Good. Since all you want to do is nitpick and insult, I am done also.

You know no such thing.

You said nothing about your buddies screw up, you ignored it. He was wrong.

Typical.

This is a game to you, to me it is far from it, as I saw the effect of Ritalin
for 38 years.

So go belittle somewhere else

Sure I do. You posted that link as substantiation for your claim that drugs are
Scheduled by the FDA. Not only does the text on that page *not* bear out your
assertion, but it is to all intents and purposes irrelevant: it is an FDA
directive concerning euthanizing and immobilizing agents for animals. Either
you are mind-bogglingly unintelligent to think this would have any relevance at
all to your claim (that FDA Schedules substances) or you simply did not read it.
I decided to be charitable and say you didn't read it.

I believe JS was laugh that you truly believe that your sandbox experience
gives you the expertise that you continually trip over here....

it may give you preschool babysitting experience (actual experience by your
words)...but surely nothing else...

Why should she believe the DEA? As everyone knows
they're in the pockets of the drug companies.
