Out of control leftist mayor of NYC..bans 2 liter bottles of soda w/pizza delivery!!

[TheRifleman]

Once again, the leftists ALWAYS know what is good for you and what isn't....you are just dumb.

Why don't they just stay the HELL OUT OF MY LIFE?? Why are they so much smarter then the rest of us?

Take a big gulp, New York: Hizzoner is about to give you a pop.

Nanny Bloomberg unleashes his ban on large sodas on March 12 — and there are some nasty surprises lurking for hardworking families.

Say goodbye to that 2-liter bottle of Coke with your pizza delivery, pitchers of soft drinks at your kid’s birthday party and some bottle-service mixers at your favorite nightclub.
They’d violate Mayor Bloomberg’s new rules, which prohibit eateries from serving or selling sugary drinks in containers larger than 16 ounces.
Bloomberg’s soda smackdown follows his attacks on salt, sugar, trans fat, smoking and even baby formula.

It's good though for new yorkers, they keep voting for this KUNNT to stay as mayor so who cares anymore.

[James D]

That POS is so out of control. NYC is such a joke that they put up with this guy. Salt, sugar, transfat they regulate, but cigarettes as long as you pay the stiff taxes you can have them.

[Weems2k]

Well, look at it this way. If the current trend continues, NY is going to lose close to 1/4 of it's population in a few years, meaning less tax revenue, and less city services. Then all the illegal bums who can't get their free phones, houses, booze, etc will riot, and Mayor McCheese will resign.

[Kermit]

Too many fat people in the U.S.

[Foxx]

The best part is we now need the Soda Size Enforcement Agency and we can pat ourselves on the back for creating new jobs. We can also pay them $40/hour and let them retire with a full government pension after 15 years.

step in the right direction.. drive thru should be banned also, you should have to stand up and get ur food not burn fuel waiting 20 minutes for a small coffee

[KingJD31]

Bloomtwat is leaving after this year thank God

[robzilla]

Just get a litre of Cola, Farva!

[CrazyCarl]

Hold up a second, I thought democrats were good on civil liberties?

(And don't anyone even try to say he's 'independent' or was a republican for a few years -- he's as liberal as liberal can be)

In ancient rome
There was a poem
About a dog
Who found two bones
He picked at one
He licked the other
He went in circles
He dropped dead

Freedom of choice
Is what you got
Freedom from choice
Is what you want

[GamblerSpirit]

He's extremely snobbish. Fukk him. Fukk Baskets too(OP)

I'd have no problem if they did that...surely a great idea and it could be tweaked too like if it's under 40 degrees then the Drive thru's can operate

1. Liberals also like the freedom to control the lives of others, telling them:
   • How to live
   • What to do
   • How and what to eat
   • How much they should weigh
   • Where they can smoke
   • Use public transit
   • Buy local
   • What cars not to buy
   • Where to go to school
   • What they should believe
   • What health care to use
   
   

[TheRifleman]

Liberals also have some strange ideas of what freedom is. They think "freedom" is:

• Requiring people to join unions to be allowed to work
• Zoning laws controlling land use, freeing us from unsightly uses
• Freedom from religion
• Keeping people from obeying their religions
• Freedom from big business

Meanwhile, the rest of us think of freedom as freedom to do what we want to do, and have what we want to have, as long as others are not harmed in the process. Government should not have the power to remove what bothers some people.

um youre gonna run into some major trouble with right wing activities on that one son. some of it will be too abstract and intellectually demanding for you to be able to comprehend, no doubt, such as wall st/banking/tax issues. But other stuff is probably within your intellectual capacity to understand, provided of course you take the time to learn the full scope of the issues completely, such as basic corporate bribery issues.

a great place to start, and definitely manageable with your intellectual capacities, is the career of Jack Abramoff. Read/reseach about him, who he was, what he did, what happened, who he is now, etc etc. Great starting point

I can see them banning cigarettes soon.

no argument about processed stuff. I don't drink pop. Not since I was 20 or so. Restaurants will just give 2 for one 8-oz drinks etc to get around it. Looks like the judge threw it out anyways but it is just another example of more government and less freedoms. They start with the things like gambling online in 2006, patriot act, banning toys with happy meals, 16 oz. drinks, 2nd amendment etc etc.

stop wasting money and let the country start to recover.

Once you hit I'd say 34 or so.... there's no way your body can burn off extra sugar/carbs like it use too. But from 28 and under... do what you wish.
