Pharmacy Lunacy Prescription for failure

Pharamacies are bleating - a characteristic of all State employees by the way -about loss of gov funding which means some will have to close down but why do they need such assistance in the first place -its not as if drug selling is small narrow market where no one can make a living. Every other person is on some sort of drug or other. In a free market people would be able to purchase any drug of choice over the counter at any retail outlet -why should the State monopolise this industry or any other for that matter? The state has cornered and distorted the drugs market like any other mafia like outfit and like it does to every market it intervenes in and co opts to its statist  controlling proscriptive ends.
