FDA jumps on anti-Net bandwagon Agency plans to regulate health websites

At the direction of President Clinton, the Food and Drug Administration is launching a "consumer protection initiative" aimed at regulating online pharmacies and other health websites -- a move critics say will give the government unprecedented police powers on the World Wide Web.
Specifically, the FDA's initiative will, "establish new Federal requirements for all Internet pharmacies to ensure that they comply with state and Federal laws, create new civil penalties for the illegal sale of pharmaceuticals, give Federal agencies new authority to swiftly gather the information needed to prosecute offenders, expand Federal enforcement efforts and launch a new public education campaign about the potential dangers of buying prescription drugs online," according to the agency's website.

To be GOVERNED is to be watched, inspected, spied upon, directed, law-driven, numbered, regulated, enrolled, indoctrinated, preached at, controlled, checked, estimated, valued, censured, commanded, by creatures who have neither the right nor the wisdom nor the virtue to do so. To be GOVERNED is to be at every operation, at every transaction noted, registered, counted, taxed, stamped, measured, numbered, assessed, licensed, authorized, admonished, prevented, forbidden, reformed, corrected, punished. It is, under pretext of public utility, and in the name of the general interest, to be placed under contribution, drilled, fleeced, exploited, monopolized, extorted from, squeezed, hoaxed, robbed; then, at the slightest resistance, the first word of complaint, to be repressed, fined, vilified, harassed, hunted down, abused, clubbed, disarmed, bound, choked, imprisoned, judged, condemned, shot, deported, sacrificed, sold, betrayed; and to crown all, mocked, ridiculed, derided, outraged, dishonored. That is government; that is its justice; that is its morality.
