Because it would help track drug abuse.

SO YOU LIKE BIG BROTHER?

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!

Max

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.

Incidentally, our previous president has not acquired enough money to build his presidential library, not even enough money for a presidential magazine stand.

I have no desire to watch him spew lies and pat himself on the back. He's a sorry excuse of a human being.

Max

Thee truth is hard for some to swallow. Maybe you could find a Biden or Obama clip to watch?

Steve Baumann

I didn't but have total support for the vast majority of what he has accomplished and is trying to accomplish. The country was harmed greatly by the Democrats, they plundered our wealth, Republicans also played a hand. No more.

Fred

Do a little research on how our national debt has grown under republican presidents compared to democrats. Also see how Reagan and "trickle down economics" is what put us on the path to financial ruin while creating the tremendous wealth inequality we see today.

Fred

I don't enjoy being lied to ...

Max

Going back nearly fifty years, when I was in the military, and Carter was the president, the military was starving. As an E-6 with a wife and two children, legally, I qualified for food stamps. Instead, I got a part-time job. Carter, was a far better president than Obama, and Biden. Facts are tough.

Max

You got tired of that with 8 years of Obama and 4 years of Biden. That's over, now.

Not seeing very good returns on the 5 day schedule. Are we sure 4 days are the answer. Dropping standards is never an option. You soften standards on discipline and look where it has got you. Do the hard right over the easy wrong.

Max

One full day, for the kids to be unsupervised, in most cases, spells DANGER for them, but if it's good for the teachers, then let's do it. Teachers Unions have been so good, for so for so long, for everyone, but the children, and their parents....
