Re: bloomberg to ban sugary drinks [Re: abltsandwich]

I think I'm going to invest in Bain Capital.  Then, I'm going to buy stock in Haliburton.  After that, I'm jumping into my 10mpg SUV and driving alone to 7-11, where I am going to buy a pack of camels and a 32oz big gulp.  I'm going to go to a resteraunt and dump piles of salt on my food when i eat.  After that, I'll smoke a couple of camels and go roast a pipe-load."

Did I miss anything?

Cash registers do exactly that.

Are restaurants legally required to submit cup counts to some authority?  Even then, they'd have a volume of soda sold and number of cups sold, but there's nothing to indicate which sodas went into which cups.  Most restaurants have a generic "soda" charge, I think it's mostly chain restaurants that register specific sodas on the receipt.  It's not recorded whether a customer bought Coke, Dr Pepper, Pepsi, etc.  So how do they know which sodas went in which volume size cup?

I've never seen someone use a register to count a refill on a soda.

If everything was illegal then the cops would have to kill everybody.

That would be one way to track what you are asking about tracking, is what I'm saying.
You've apparently never worked in a restaurant. Invest two weeks in it. Fascinating look at a section of the business world.

And exactly why it won't work.  How much are they going to have to spend to enforce this?  Any reasonable method of enforcement beyond "the honor system" is going to cost too much for such little return.

At the expense of local business.  That's his point.  Economic times are shitty, why the fuck is anyone trying to reduce demand and consumption on anything?

Local business > People's inability to make healthy choices

Which causes business to sell less product, hire fewer workers, which generates less tax revenue for the government.  That's the Point.

Haha if you believe that shit. You mean the government subsidized farmers at the subsidized businesses. Read a balance sheet. You can't produce enough food for people without subsidies.

honestly, when people are too stupid to take care of themselves someone else has to step up.



that's why marijuana is banned, because some people are too stupid so everyone is denied access


Of course, have to protect 'THE FEW' which in turn screws it up for everyone who is responsible.

If the USA could apply that thinking to Alcohol, it would be fucking Illegal.  WHICH IT SHOULD BE!

Cigarettes cause health problems too, seem worse than a sugary drink yet they haven't tried to do anything with them.
