Sorry I wasn't thinking, I too line people up for the fall.
All though is the ban on fast food too or just stores? Never read the law.

but by that thinking the state can make anything it wants illegal, and you would then support the upholding of the law, regardless of what it is
See my last post, restaurant are not going to help a thing, they need to get large food store chains in with lower prices. Personally I have no problem with this myself. They are NOT shutting down whats already there, they are just looking for BETTER service for the area, a valid job for a Government of any size, as long they are not banning things all together.
Or at least not by "international" standards that is.
But then again, having a higher benchmark for the poverty level would seem to me to be an indicator of relative success, no?
Prolly.
But what is the optimal level? Therein lies the true debate and noble compromise.
edit: maybe you should start a thread.
City officials are putting South Los Angeles on a diet.
So you don't think a city can put a moratorium on new businesses? How is this different than putting a moratorium on new baseball stadiums, or strip clubs, or gas stations...???
Seems to me they are addressing a health problem that affects their EMT outlay, no?
You might have a point if they were actually running the other places out of town. They aren't, so you don't. Nice generalizing, btw.By removing the freedom to choose.
Cities have the right under zoning laws I imagine to disallow/allow all kinds of building. the reasoning behind this decision is the problem.
Liberals hate when the right uses the 'the left knows whats best for you' or 'it's for your own good' stereotype, but this decision could not be a more shining example of that. Here's another one: We won't make people make responsible choices for themselves, we'll just remove the choices and that'll fix it.
The left is systematically making us a weaker country when they make legislative decisions like this.

fast food is cheap. it is also extremely unhealthy. often people dont have time to make their own food, or they cant afford to get an oven or pots and pans, etc, to make their own food. the only choice left is mcD's
It is generalization that happens to fit this perfectly. The point is valid, because no matter what word games you want to play, the government has deemed it okay to restrict choice (for their own good of course).
You seem awfully hung up on this restriction of choice epiphany you've recently experienced. ALL laws are a restriction of choice by definition. May I assume you're not advocating anarchy? The debate is not about whether it's okay for governments to restrict choice. They can. Always have, always will. The debate should always be on a case by case basis and consider whether the proposed restriction is legal and necessary. Clearly, the fast food moratorium is not illegal, but the need for the restriction is the part I'm not sold on.

Yeah, whatever happened to that attempt you were making against me on the demonized republican politician threads?
