Guess what? They do. From ABC News, regarding the VA Tech shooter:
Some news accounts have suggested that Cho had a history of antidepressant use, but senior federal officials tell ABC News that they can find no record of such medication in the government's files. This does not completely rule out prescription drug use, including samples from a physician, drugs obtained through illegal Internet sources, or a gap in the federal database, but the sources say theirs is a reasonably complete search.
We don't even have a list of gun owners, and we have a list of everyone who has been prescribed anti-depressants? And in fact, the article suggests that this isn't just a database of patients who use anti-depressants, it's a federal database of every prescription drug you've ever bought.

What exactly do the Bushies do with that list? And what other lists do they have of which medications you've ever taken?

4. No surprise.
We have no privacy. Our medical records are widely shared within the insurance industry, and of course the DEA and CDC do too. So it's no surprise that bureaucrats in other organizations and agencies can request that information.

Privacy is a polite myth. x(

5. The mentally ill/disabled
were the FIST ones killed by the Nazis.

Check out Bush's plan for"helping" mentally ill people.

Seems like if you ain't enough of a sociopath you are crazy...and need to have that CONSIENCE medicated away lest you be too unwilling to go along with what the"authorities" tell you.

When Hillary Clinton became First Lady of the U.S. in 1993, she was in charge of a health care task force, about half the members of whom were connected with the Robert Wood Johnson (RWJ) Foundation. On the NBC "Today Show" (January 23, 1990), Dr. Michael Lewis of the New Jersey Robert Wood Johnson Medical School had claimed: "Lying is an important part of social life, and children who are unable to do it are children who may have developmental problems."
