NannyState Update: NYC Dual Flush Regualtion Push 1 for a #1 and 2 for a #2

[CrusaderFrank]

NYC City Council just passed a resolution mandating that after July 2012 all new building have dual flush toliets.

No, I'm not making it up.

We just don't have enough government in our lives.

That fucking Rudy deregulated how toilets flush!

Praise Allah for Democrats!

Just like Obamacare, nobody is going to see their water bills stop rising...

Ignizio also noted that New Yorkers have been paying higher water bills despite conserving water - consumption has been cut by more than 7 percent in 7 years, while water rates have nearly doubled in 10 years

Fucking Bush and the fucking Republicans deregulated toilets! See what happened?!

I agree, we need to control these nanny state policies, but I think the one below is a bit more relevant when it comes to America's wellbeing.

"...Dean Baker debunks the myth that conservatives favor the market over government intervention. In fact, conservatives rely on a range of “nanny state” policies that ensure the rich get richer while leaving most Americans worse off. It’s time for the rules to change. Sound economic policy should harness the market in ways that produce desirable social outcomes – decent wages, good jobs and affordable health care." The Conservative Nanny State

The joys of socialism at the expense of private property/individual rights.
Without property rights, no other rights are possible.

I agree. And in order to vastly increase the availability of wages, jobs and affordable health care, we need to minimize government down to its Constitutionally appropriate level of insuring property rights, court proceedings and little else.
