and yeah, so tongue in cheek in case anyone was wondering....
It is interesting that in a society where we are medicated at a far higher rate than ever before, bombarded with ads for various medications/drugs at every turn and seemingly have a drugstore at on every corner there are those who firmly believe that people have a problem with a fairly innocous medication given to horses as a preventative measure.

Of course when the hyperbole begins and it is called abuse and tied to all kinds of other completely separate issues public sentiment (the public being pretty stupid in general) can turn.
