Perhaps, as to our fundamental "human nature" but that isn't the subject; the subject is politics.

The choices and laws enacted by our political leaders most certainly do provide for change.

Consider FDR's "New Deal" for example: massive change from the "old ways."

Or LBJ's "Great Society."

Civilizations have risen and fallen due to political decisions.....
Or Nero's chickens and circuses. Nothings changed in a thousand years, it's always about power and who will do anything to get it.

Those people in homemade labs making it are at actual risk or if a cop walked in on a operation or shortly after, but the article made it sound like these claims that officers said it came from touching it in a random drug bust of smaller amount sound bogus.

I suppose most chemical factory work (even the legal kind) probably ranges from unhealthy to deadly without the proper safety equipment.

I get rather nauseated from the overwhelming smell in a candle store.

I have found that if you make your Meth in a 2 liter soda bottle it really contains the smell.
At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent.

Better to properly exhaust it out in the country or mix it in with industrial output.

Yawn
Its politics
Ted Cruz is getting desperate
Tucker Carlson actually made him grovel after he correctly called the people attacking our capitol terrorists.
Cruz is so wimpy groveling on Fox
Trump insults his family and Cruz just slinks away

Cruz then brought up Ray Epps, who was seen on video the day before the riot, telling a crowd, "Tomorrow, we need to get into the Capitol! Into the Capitol!" The crowd responded by shouting, "Fed! Fed! Fed!" at him... Epps, later claimed that he was not encouraging wrongdoing... "The only thing that meant is we would go in the doors like everyone else"
WTF? didn't see this coming. That is a lame excuse, and I have to say if this Epps person is not in trouble for this, well, yeah, he was a Fed like the crowd figured out. They're throwing the book at everyone else . This is nuts.

edit: looking further into it, this Epps guy would normally just seem to be one of the problem people there, so how has it come to pass that Cruz would suspect he was a Federal agent and the FBI official say "Sir, I cannot answer that question"

If there is no official operation, I'm wouldn't say anything other than what she answered. The way the one question is worded, you're answering as if you know what every agent of the FBI or associate is doing in their unofficial off time. No way I would put out a "no" under oath.
