Authoritarian? The reason it's freely available in the US is because they label it as a supplement. Which, considering that it doesn't have any value as such, isn't good either.

The risks of long-term usage aren't yet quite clear (as are the benefits). I'm all for legalising more stuff, and we could probably do it for melatonin, but there's a lot of things that would be less controversial :P
