Glad my governor didn't see it that way, Magness. I understand -- you're just upset that another BigGovernment BigGiveaway to BigDrug got challenged. Okay, snipes aside, did you notice this bit:

Mr. Hubbard said he could not say whether the agency might take legal action against Illinois because he had not seen details of its plan.

You can do the plan legally. Minnesota did. If it was so obviously illegal, they would arrest people for it, and companies wouldn't collude to do it. It's not as black/white as one rogue mayor ignoring the law and approving marriages only to have them all annulled (just this last week, in fact).
The problem is it is illegal to sell non-FDA approved drugs here, but it isn't illegal for you the citizen to buy them elsewhere in most instances.
And, let's be real -- do we really need the FDA to tell us drugs coming from Ireland and Canada are safe? I, for one, trust Canada and Ireland more than I trust the FDA, especially since I know the FDA is a shill for the food and drug companies. An FDA-specialized attorney once summed it up nicely to me: "Please, it's not like we can expect to *know* what's really in our food." I think that sums up the FDA nicely -- they're simply wankers.
