The FDA Wants You to Suffer



Oh golly gee! The FDA thinks acetaminophen is bad for you. That's the main ingredient of Tylenol. Let me tell you I could take a whole factory full of Tylenol and it wouldn't make a dent in any pain I ever had, but the FDA in its infinite wisdom wants people to actually lower the dose of Tylenol that they take.

To make matters worse they want to take Percoset and Vycodin off the market because they contain acetaminophen. Guys, they also contain wonderful narcotics! What is wrong with you people?

They're also after Darvocet which (you guessed it) also contains acetaminophen.

The aforementioned acetaminophen might cause liver damage.

Now let's be serious, FDA people. You allow pharmaceutical companies to market drugs to young teenaged girls (and I'm thinking Gardasil) to prevent a few types of cervical cancer after very little research has been performed on it. You have absolutely no idea of what the long term consequences of this vaccine might be, but suddenly you're all worried about Tylenol? Wasn't acetaminophen mentioned in the Bible?

Your priorities are screwed up, FDA. Get 'em straight! You're giving me a headache!
