N.Y. Mayor Bloomberg bans 2-liter sodas with pizza delivery

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

Have New Yorkers truly become so pathetic and incompetent that they can't make these decisions for themselves? Apparently so since they keep electing the nanny state to do it for them.

Amid New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s ban on big sodas — taking effect in March — are some details that may have been overlooked.

Say goodbye to that 2-liter soda with your pizza delivery, pitchers of soft drinks at your kid’s birthday party and some bottle-service mixers at your favorite nightclub, The New York Post reports.

The mayor’s new rules prohibit restaurants from serving or selling soda in containers larger than 16 ounces.

“It’s not fair. If you’re gonna tell me what to do, it’s no good,” Steve DiMaggio of Caruso’s in Brooklyn borough told The Post. “It’s gonna cost a lot more.”

Bloomberg does not understand the concept of sharing. Next, a limit to the size of pizzas themselves. No one should be eating a pizza bigger than 6 inches.

One big bottle, many small glasses. He doesn't come close to understanding the concept.

I thought New Yorkers were savvy, bold and sassy.

Guess not.

Guess not.

No, they are not.... they're typical libs most of them, arrogant, totally full of themselves, always giving you the "I'm so much smarter than you" treatment then allowing the gubmint to snatch 60% of their earnings while dictating how much soda they can buy.

That's why I left that shithole in the early nineties.

Wow, just wow. WHY would anyone vote for this nonsense? Or did this idiot just decree it?

Doombergs career better end in NY.

 

[LordBrownTrout]

Are NYers too stupid to make a decision for themselves?

 

[DiamondDave]

Leftism.. progressivism.. liberalism.. whatever you wish to call it... that is what brings this stupid nanny state crap about

Some of us stick it out here due to friends and more importantly, family.

A collection should be taken. All money to go to the first person to give Bloomberg a good solid kick in the nuts.

I bet that person would be an instant millionaire.

[GeoLaureate8]

That is the Liberal dream. Liberals are salivating over this new law.

Hey that's just like the smarter then everybody else Lib's on this Board!

But can I get a 30 round Mag. with that pie please?

Libs in other cities will now fight to outlib NYC and ban more things to be the most progressive city

 

[Clementine]

I know liberals like to call themselves progressives because it sounds better than what they actually are.

They are truly regressive because they are doing their best to take this country down the same path that bought down many countries in history. Communism is a giant step backward. It means undoing all the freedom and liberty we have fought for over the years. It means going back to a dictatorship where the wealthy elite rule over desperate masses. They convince the useful idiots that it's a move forward and, for way too many people, it just means a government taking care of them. They believe that and have no clue what is really in store for all of us if we continue.

With all the laws seeking to control our behavior and health care, gun control, propaganda, spying on citizens, overtaxing us, legislating our every move and constant attempts to chip away at whats left of our freedoms, how can any intelligent person see that as moving forward?

Only an idiot would believe that a politician making a law will solve a problem?

 

[Soggy in NOLA]

This Bloomberg sure has one helluva oral fixation... he's obsessed with what people put in their mouths.

 

[Mad Scientist]

Bloomberg is a piece of sh*t.

 

[Desperado]

To show how much New Yorkers love Bloomberg, in 2008, they actually changed the city's term limits law which allowed Bloomberg to be elected to his third term.

And GOD forbid you live south of the Mason-Dixon Line...
