Because it would help track drug abuse.

Addictive Opioids can and do wreak havoc in families and society. They need to be tracked and monitored from their source to their end user. The only way to monitor those who doctor shop and use multiple pharmacies to obtain opioids is a to have this monitoring system. Period. Wake up Missouri!

To Harold , I don't like big brother, the dems like big brother, I also don't like watching addicts killing themselves with drugs and taking others with them. With a simple tracking system people would not get lethal doses, to kill themselves with or to sell to others.

This needs to be CONFIDENTIAL. BIG BROTHER has no business with this info.

Audrey Shewmaker

It makes it harder for those who are on them for a good reason.

Max

Drug abuse is not a good reason.

Steve TheBmann

The beauracracy is already too big. We need to find simpler, less cost effective ways of controlling meds.

Max

Criminals can't skirt this law. It's a good law.

Max

Don't vote for Democrats.

Steve TheBmann

Also, more laws do nothing for the criminals and seemingly only punish the law abiding tax paying citizens.

Most people already drive 75 MPH, at least. Trust the people.

A lot of people drive faster than the posted speed limit - 75 to 80 instead of 70. Increasing the speed limit will just push the actual travel rates higher - 80 to 85 instead of 75. With all of the heavy trucks on the road (some that drive slow), higher speeds are just dangerous.

Shelley Vansell

Drivers are already driving 5 to 10 miles over the current limits so if it's increased I'm pretty sure they'll exceed the new limits.

The Democratic Party is pushing hateful rhetoric, like calling Trump supporters "fascist" and "nazi" to drive people to violence and cause a color revolution. This must stop.

Trump has called Democrats “scum,” “vermin,” “animals” and “enemies of the people.” When U.S. Rep. Pelosi’s 82-year-old husband was bludgeoned with a hammer by a deranged man, Trump joked about it.

'This Is A Both Sides Issue,' Says Side That Shot President Trump, Assassinated Charlie Kirk, Tried To Assassinate Kavanaugh, Tried To Shoot Trump Again, Shot Steve Scalise, Firebombed Governor Shapiro, Tried To Shoot Trump A Third Time..." Babylon Bee - but true.

Max

They are acting like that, yes.
