Ever heard of Ephedra? It was the shizz in the weight loss world until 2004, when the FDA finally banned it. Apparently this stuff caused strokes, heart attacks, and even liver failure! Sure, it was quite effective as a fat burner, but, come on, people would rather have their livers intact than be slim.
Rain Water
As stupid as this may sound, collecting rainwater in America is considered theft. Apparently water companies think that since the rainwater seeps through the ground, it somehow belongs to them. One time, a dude from Oregon spent a whole freaking month in jail, because of this stupid law, so clearly, the government does not take this matter lightly.
