&#039;...but a lot of pain meds are really, really overprescribed.&#039;

please supply some links supporting your position, particularly regarding wc. I think, in general Americans are quick to look for pharmaceutical solutions to many issues that may not require drugs. I&#039;m not sure this is anyone&#039;s business except the person taking the drug. I understand there&#039;s a downside to just about everything, but I believe there&#039;s a shortage of opiate based pain medication in the world.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The bailout of GM will serve as huge comedy over the coming years.  A business run by politics and politicians.  

Some of the results will be predictable, but I can&#039;t wait for the little surprises that are sure to arrive.

I agree with the Montana dude&#039;s actions, but probably not his motivation.  He SHOULD be in GM&#039;s bidness...often.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Radley, I am with you on prosecutors who are overzealous regarding the prescription drugs, but a lot of pain meds are really, really overprescribed.  There are some huge problems with opiate based pain medicines in the upper Southeast and Midwest that are staggering.  It is not propaganda.  You can get a good look at it in the workers&#039; compensation systems of most states.  Pain meds are killing those people and turning them into malingering losers.  I am perplexed at how many doctors in this system prescribe these meds for people.  The research is evolving that the co-morbid conditions caused by pain meds may be perpetuating many WC claimant&#039;s problems in returning to work.  It&#039;s not really hard to see when you look at so many non-work comp injured people leading more productive lives than similarly injured WC claimants.  Opiate based pain meds is definately a player in it.  To deny that is sticking your head in the sand.  They are terrible.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[To me, the registry for parents to take their kids to the playground is a natural progression of the sex offender lists and other databases. we&#039;ll all be on &#039;lists&#039;. we&#039;ll have to carry credentials that show we&#039;re on the right &#039;list&#039;- it&#039;ll be like walking around proving your innocence all the time and always being afraid of being placed on a bad list. I can think of a few undesirable lists:

1. obese
2. gun owner
3. drinker
4. health issues
5. no degree
6. religious (non)affiliation
7. reckless hobbyist
8. tv watching habits
9. internet usage

like titles on old motorcycles, if you don&#039;t have the proper papers, things will be difficult. the govt devalues more useful people and property by creating these bureaucratic lists and requiring state sanctioned approval... at least the kids will be safe!]]></description>
