Today's comment comes from reader jdub, in response to our story about how some Missouri counties are looking to make Sudafed and other pseudoephedrine-based products available only to customers with a prescription. Supporters say the restrictions will make it harder for tweakers to use the stuff to make crystal meth.

But as jdub points out, it's not it's been so difficult for addicts to get their paws on other prescription-only drugs ...

Prescription-only has worked well with pain meds so we can all sleep easy at night knowing that the meth problem has been solved.
