Government plans to curb cheap booze offers

Its far better to brew your own beer, make your own wine and make your own booze. You can then fine tune it to your taste, much better, stronger and can be fun too.

 

How so?
Quack medicine is quack medicine.

I never was unhappy about the booze, I don't think, prove me wrong if you like.

 

Well if you go to a Buddhist area then you won't get animal skin balls.
What's quack medicine supposed to be anyway? Sore throat?

Someone was, whoever made the thread was.

 

I'm not unhappy about booze, I'm pissed at the government first off taxing the shit out of it, and then telling the supermarkets not to have happy hours.

Fuck the government, in every way possible.

 

in MA where I live, butts are 7 dollars a pack, there is no happy hours by law, you cannot smoke inside, or outside (within 100 feet of a building) cannot use a cell phone driving, must wear a seat belt, its ILLEGAL to eat trans fat and the super markets do not sell booz.

cry me a river.

 

It's in the mail.

 

I think your making up the bit about the trans fats.

 

no, the state banned trans fat...bunch of fucking idiots they are

 

I just don't beleive a governing body would pass a law that actually made sense!

 

no, its fucking stupid

this is just more of them slowly taking away personal responsibility

 

If it stops companies selling cheap heart attack inducing crap then it's a good thing.

 

that should not be the gov'ts job to make that decision

 

I don't know how they are gonna enforce it though, as soon as you fry something you create trans fats. It's just there are a lot more in industrially processed hydrogenated oils. You can't really avoid eating them, it's just important not to eat factory shit.

 

Animal skin balls! The bark from a rubber tree...it is all the same.
Untested and unreliable.

Dodgy medicine, practised by dodgy so-called medicine men/women.

Not me.

 

India is full of them, but that is largely because america and britain closed down all the ayurveda schools in the 18th century, because western medicine was better.

 

thats for the individual to make that decision on what they eat

shit, i would personally love to ban veganism and vegetarianism...but its not my or the gov't place to dictate what others eat

 

Vegan/Vegetarianism isn't unhealthy!

Eating hydrogenated fats is, V E R Y.

 

who said i wanted it banned for being 'unhealthy"?

 

So, over a hundred years ago!
I'm not suggesting eastern medicine is all bad or is bad per se.
The general standard of medicine though, especially so-called "herbal medicine" is SHIT.
It is untested and relys on mothers saying it works rather than proven science.
It still does not condone selling dodgy medicine when we live in the 21st century.
