Mayor Bloomberg is Wrecking New York City.
16 Ounce Sodas? My Advice- BUY ONE, GET ONE FREE.
 


THE KUHNS REPORT



LAS VEGAS-Hello America, and how is the world treating you?

The mayor of New York City is up to his nanny, " I'll take care of you" games-AGAIN. Now he wants to restrict a persons choice as to how much soda they want to drink. Michael Bloomberg now wants all restaurants, fast food, convenience stores, Ball Parks, entertainment gatherings, etc., to only sell sodas and sweet drinks in 16 ounce, or less, containers. Wow! Where is this idiot coming from? Many people enjoy a soda in a 32 or 64 ounce cup. He and his "in the pocket" City Health Department officials banned smoking, then it was trans fats, then calorie counts, and now he and his cohorts dictate how much a person can drink.

Where is the New Yorker's residents outrage? His millions of dollars bought himself a new term in office and at the same time bought him politicians and lawmakers to do his bidding. Now New Yorker's, like sheep, follow him and go along with his crazy ideas.

This country was founded on a person's liberty and freedom. Freedom of choice is a biggie, yet the citizens of New York allow this looney-tune take away their freedom of choice, little by little by declaring "It's for your own good," "It's a health issue."He says, "What I'm doing is good for you." Folks, that is a bunch of gobbly-gook. People can make their own decisions. They have been doing it for decade, even before Bloomberg was born.and the world didn't stop or come to an end. Life went on very well before Bloomberg came on the scene. His nanny state attitude is a detriment to every citizen in the  city of New York, the state and the country as a whole. The nation can do well without these fanatical do-gooders.

This recent Bloomberg fiasco of restricting a persons soda/soft drink consumption will have a large economic detrimental effect on both the large soft drink corporations, distributors, various companies and the small business owner.If it were me and I owned a corporation like Coke, Pepsi  or even a company like Slurpee, I would sue Bloomberg and his Health Department zombies that follow  his bidding.

Hell, this Mayor comes up with crazy ideas to take away a persons "right to choose" and then calls up his Health Department goons who walk in lock step with him, who are beholden to him and they rationalize the ban or law as one that is a health problem.

People, here is here my suggestion to each and every restaurant, convenience store, McDonald's, Wendy's, Jack in the Box, Burger King and every other fast food place in the city. - - - Offer a "BUY ONE, GET ONE FREE." or "BUY ONE, get the second for a PENNY or DIME. So the result: The customer  buys Bloomberg's 16 ounce soda but they wind up with a 32 ounce, since the second is FREE or at a very nominal cost.

A question to ponder- What happens if a customer walks into a grocery store or convenience store and buys a 64 ounce bottle of Coke, Pepsi, 7 - Up, etc, and has his or her  own drinking cup, even a 16 ounce cup? Is Bloomberg going to confiscate the 64 ounce bottle of soda telling the person they can only drink 16 ounces of the soda? I wouldn't put it past him.

The BUY ONE, GET ONE free offer would allow the customer to indulge their desires. The only down side I can see with this idea is that the customer will be carrying more than one cup. Big Deal. At least they would be getting the amount of soda/soft drink they want.

And, finally, a suggestion to the citizens of New York City. Throw this bum out on the street. Use peaceful protest and don't allow this small minded man who has a small mined view of freedom trample your liberties and freedom of choice. If New Yorker's do not put a muzzle on this crazy person, where will it stop? You won't be allowed to eat greasy foods? Will he ban fried chicken, burgers, pizza? Don't forget the sweets - -pies, cakes, candy, ice cream, etc.

Bloomberg is the problem, not the people of New York City. Let him look out for his own health and put whatever he wants in his and his families body and let us people do the same. -  And, that's my opinion. Make your own decisions. You decide.
