Eye Contacts

Hazel was going to order a new set of contacts and the online company required a current prescription be provided. Another intrusion of government at the behest of special interest. Presumably fashion contacts were being ordered that could potentially cause eye damage.

What happened to a warning sheet with the order? Another alibi was that most eye injury come from using contacts at night. How does a prescription prevent that?

While I am ranting...do you really think those signs that say "Drive Carefully" make a difference? They cost taxpayer money, is it wisely spent? Got onto this while thinking about all the stupid warnings we are given - and ignore. How about those radio ads which, at the end, a voice rattles off some gibberish - yea for government. Think I will become a Libertarian. I may not fully agree with their view but at least they are going in the right direction. I feel surrounded by government, rules and laws.
