[How Business Happens] War on Drugs

Folks,

The FDA is now going after small businesses who sell safe remedies, but
have not gotten FDA approval. Never mind that these companies have been
selling their products longer than there has even been an FDA. The FDA has
"reports" (not science, just anecdotes) of illness and death from these
products, some 600 in fact (out of how many doses given, over how much
time?) What is being sold by these small business that must be controlled?
Quinine. That's right, the stuff in your gin and tonic.

The news release further names an approved source of the product, which is
a new twist. As the FDA destroys your company for selling a safe product
which has been legal forever, they tell your customers where they can go
get it now.

Sounds like a protection racket.

John
