Cows burping and farting produce more environmentally harmful gasses than just about anything. Let’s outlaw them.
Let's give those cows the death penalty and go have a cheeseburger!

Some such causes are very legitimate; I did not say ALL......
I agree. But outlawing Albuterol inhalers to asthma patients is absurd. If they really wanted to do some good they would outlaw cigarettes. Cancer sticks don't do a damned thing for anybody except supply profits to corporations and tobacco farmers and politicians. I can't even go to a pub and enjoy a few beers without gagging on somebody's stink.

In 2001, 20 million Americans had asthma, including 6.3 million children. That was up from 6.7 Americans with asthma in 1980.
