Hahahaha, no shit.

But you pulled pseudoephedrine which actually fucking works, because "people were making meth from it"... So people like me who need it can only get ONE BOX a month.

Fuck the corrupt FDA

IIRC putting pseudoephedrine behind the counter wasn’t FDA but states’ attorneys general, and there were some variations from state to state. Oregon actually required a prescription, at least 8 or 9 years ago when I got sick while visiting family.
