The hero we need. Been surviving with the odd box bought overseas when travelling. FDA came out recently and said PE was just as bullshit as we all knew it was

Really weird thing for him to have been focusing on.

If I'd known he was interested in little things like that I would have written to him about mothballs.

It's kind of an "easy win" policy he can point to and claim to be cutting thru "red tape" or whatever. Not too many downsides... I'm not sure if making it available really makes it easier to make meth, but if it does that's probably good for Act too! Gives them something to target.

Makes sense.

Hey maybe I should get a mothball lobby going, he can achieve it during his term. This government is a disaster for me on a personal level so I might as well see if I can get some small perk out of it. When life gives you lemons...
