Default We've banned many things in the interest of YOUR health. Why not caffeine?

Caffeine should only be available by prescription . . . just like steroids.

Don't want you poor, dumb citizens to hurt yourselves. You understand, right? It's for your own goooooooooood.

The other day, my tv news station said caffeine is bad for the kidneys & blood pressure, over 2 cups per day. Then they said caffeine helps prevent liver cancer. Who to believe??

Anything taken in excess can be bad for your health, when will this craziness of banning things end?

Ban fluoride. Or at least give people a choice about consuming it. It's far more dangerous than caffeine. Oh yeah, I forgot. It's not about citizens choosing. They need the choices to be made for them.

If they don't ban it - they impose a hugh tax to alter our behavior. I am sick of the government taking over more and more areas of our lives so they can control our lives and fund their pork!
