Getting pissed off on behalf of someone else: for her ADHD meds she has to give a urine sample (allegedly so the MDs can tell that she still has meds in her system before they will prescribe more) and sign a statement saying she won't sell the meds. Every 30 days.
So much wrong with this. So much classism and dehumanization of people who can't afford the fancy insurance. Middle-class healthcare providers do not do any of this from what I've learned here (USA), and I can guarantee that plenty of middle-class people abuse or sell their meds. None of these processes is remotely effective at preventing the thing they're apparently trying to prevent, and it all boils down to medical professionals taking it upon themselves to shove their ideas for how poor people should behave on the poor people who have no choice but to deal with them.

The #FDA has zero credibility under Trump —
Concerned about #PublicHealth, FDA Commissioner Makary hesitated to approve vape flavors (like fruit) that kids especially like.
But #Trump worried about HIMSELF politically, noting the "importance of flavored vaping to young MAGA voters."
Trump then pressured Makary, causing him to approve the flavors (helping the #tobacco industry).
Now Trump is firing Makary.
