    “Over the counters” is still a concept within the current medical system.

    I’m talking about reforming drug laws pretty substantially.

    The way I imagine it, it would be made available from specialised stores to people who have a licence for it. Much like a drivers licence. Essentially the Bratt system, but for drugs.

        Well not exactly.

        With a prescription system, the default is that you don’t have a prescription, and get one if there’s a reason.

        With this system, the default is (people of age and other possible requirements) have a licence, and it gets taken a way if there’s a reason.

        Like the difference between OR and XOR. Similar, yes, but still different and for different purposes.
