Sorry about your possibly having to cut and paste the link. This was brought to my attention by a 'Friend'. I have yet to read the story, but fear that the headline says quite enough. Aside from a fantastic lack of personal responsibility, realize that this 'government' that implements these sorts of absurd Nanny State restrictions and mandates is voted into office in free elections. Sad fact: There are apparently very focused populations of people in this country that are so cut off from reality, say everything between Vegas and DC, that something like a ban on fast food seems logical to them. These sorts of decisions are made by people who themselves don't indulge in the bliss that is a Baconator, and feel that we rubes out here in the middle of the country can't possibly know that a Baconator is not good for us.

These are the same people and legislatures that live in beautiful areas of the country that none of the rest of us can even afford to visit let alone move to, because the cost of living is absurd due partly to the level of taxation on the private citizen and businesses that is required to support the welfare system in those areas. Can't neglect our Illegal Alien population, now can we? Only a place like San Francisco with all of its enlightened, forward thinking, ex-hippie Liberals (baby-boomers that lived high on the hog in the prosperity of the 80's and 90's and are now most holing public office) could come up with constituents that are doing so well as to have nothing better to rally around than banning fast food. (The same people feel that an $8.00 coffee is a small price to pay for being so fucking enlightened.)

My cousin suggested we sell Michigan to Canada as a means of bringing in money. He is, of course, and Ohio State fan. I suggest that we sell California, for starters!, to France, or Greece or any other Socialist European country in the throes of economic collapse. Hell, give CA away as a fucking Christmas gi-- Sorry, HOLIDAY--- gift!!!

We fought a War of Secession once, I say it's time for another.
