this is sad considering that this guy is a pro-business guy.

Oh you've been buying a lot of 16+ oz sodas were going to have to increase your premiums or not let you on the tab at all. Fuck it we'll just outright ban soda all together since it is so unhealthy. :D

honestly, i dont see how limiting the size of sodas that restaurants sell is the end of the world. it's not banning sodas, its just making people realize how many fucking sodas they are going to be drinking. "oh, you want a 64oz soda? go ahead and carry 4 cups fatty. oh, you think 4 sodas is a bit excessive?" yeah, it really is.
no more supersize bullshit.AWD > RWD

the problem with that is humans are naturally wicked when introduced with power. Both in business and in government, which have become interfused in importance for each other. Regulations get changed to suit the purpose of business expansion and regulators see who they oversee as the clients.
Liberty yields because it's not in the interest of profit to certain industries and "patriotism".

This'll really show those skinny fuckers who's right!
This will play right into the increase of taxes on soda as well. Now they'll generate more tax revenue now that people have to buy more sodas. Win win for large corrupt government telling the citizen what to do.Your signature picture has been removed since it contained the Photobucket "upgrade your account" image.

Anyway... I sure am thankful the government got McDonalds to stop serving SuperSize meals... and started making some fast food places offer healthier side alternatives... [For anyone who doesn't understand sarcasm, I'm referring to Morgan Spurlock's movie which dramatically changed McDonald's menu as well as encouraged Wendy's and others to improve the wellness of their meals through public response and them listening to the free market demands and desires, not the government's regulations]
