Well, I'm just telling you the truth as I was concerned about the legality of it all. Like I said, was told that under Bush it was a problem, but not under Obama.

To have a "seat at the table" doesn't mean much. What matters to me is that to order from Canada is no longer an issue. I have no reason to lie. Rather, I am grateful and will find another Dr. who understands.

All of our politicians are just puppets of big business.........The two party system is a sham that works to keep us divided on issues.

Thousands of Americans, including a great many seniors, are doing just that and were doing it under Bush.

With all due respect, I only have so much money. If I can buy it from Canada and live, I will. If Obama doesn't block my way, more power to him.

It goes through customs. You are misinformed.

Besides, do you enjoy taking it up the (something I can't say)? when it comes to big pharma? What is wrong with you?

I highly doubt you own a gazillion shares in any of these Big Pharma companies so what do you care?
