Universal Regulated
If we stop the expenses related to the War On Drugs couldn’t we immediately pass Universal Health Care Bill?
By the way the users would be better served
with safely regulated legal drugs that by being
much cheaper (for not being illegal) would not
force addicts to commit crime to feed their
habit.
We have kept the expensive War on Drugs forever for the sake of 10 million drug users and we haven’t given a dam for 46 million uninsured forever. Is there something very wrong in this
situation?
OBAMA WHERE IS THE CHANGE YOU PROMISED?????
The “War on Drugs” has been the biggest waste of government money. All it’s done is make drugs worth more, so it raises crime.

The New Eu Reach Regulation: Major Hurdles for the Chemicals Industry
Copyright © 2007 by Ibex Global LLC.
All Rights Reserved
On December 18, 2006, the EU passed a new Regulation on the Registration, Evaluation, and Authorization of Chemicals ((Regulation No. 1907/2006) (“REACH”). The REACH Regulation subjects chemicals imported into the EU in quantities greater than 1 ton to a long list of reporting requirements. The new regulation puts the responsibility on chemical producers to provide a wide variety of information on safety, including toxicity, carcinogeneity, mutagenicity, environmental fate, and other data that must be “robust” and often follow good laboratory practices (“GLP”) standards. The EU has created a new European Chemicals Agency to work in tandem with Member States to receive and evaluate the data submitted by chemicals manufacturers.
Historically, REACH came about due to the EU’s concern that there was an inequality of information between the governments of the Member States and the producers themselves, an inequality that was not being addressed by the old “dangerous substance” EINECS system in place with modifications since 1967. The new requirements present a long list of categories about which the chemicals industry must submit information on each chemical. The process of data gathering can be both costly and time-consuming. In addition to the costs of data collection, the chemicals manufacturers themselves are responsible for paying “user fees” to the European Commission and the European Chemicals Agency that can total in the hundreds of thousands of Euros.
Fortunately for many producers, the EU exempts entire categories of chemicals from the REACH Regulation, including those used in medical and veterinary pharmaceuticals, medical devices, cosmetics, food, and even waste. In addition, numerous other substances are exempted, including those temporarily in transit through the EU.
In addition, the REACH Regulation encourages consortiums of producers of particular chemicals to cooperate in their submissions, a process that can be more cost-effective for producers who would otherwise be forced to submit their REACH notification and registration dossiers alone. This can be crucial, because the ultimate pricetag for chemical companies, between the costs of data collection and user fees paid to the agencies, can total upwards of one million Euros. This is particularly important for small-to-medium-sized enterprises (“SMEs”) that are disproportionately affected by the costly requirements of the Regulation.
It is important to understand the exemptions as well as the proper form of complying with each individual data submission requirement under the REACH Regulation, a task that requires both a scientific and a legal-regulatory background.

Where is the line between choice and “universal morals”?
Earlier a question was asked about prostitution. Some said “its your choice”, some agreed to it as long as it was legal and regulated, while others disagreed with it completely.
Where do you draw the line between freedoms of choice and what you believe to be universal morals? Please give examples. I know this is a broad question that could include many topics or issues and their extremes; you don’t have to list every aspect of where you stand on every issue…just give examples.
For example, I think prostitution is okay as long as it is the person’s choice and it is regulated and legal in that area.
Great point Ashleigh, I guess there is a happy medium.
I believe that most Christians would label the Ten Commandments to all be universal morals and the basis for where they’d separate personal freedom of choice from the standard of universal morality—at least for 6 out of the 10. I am not a Christian but I think that each society on earth holds a few moral values in common that have evolved over time and become universally wrong to all: Stealing and baring false witness both fall into this category and often so do adultery and murder. Social values for or against freedom of choice are more plentiful than universal morals and are often regional or situational i.e. prostitution is acceptable to some sub-groups but not others. Social values are flexible where universal morals are more fixed.
