It is happening in Yolo County, Los Angeles County, and everywhere in between. Individual responsibility and freedom are being thrown out the window. The people that are expanding nanny government come from both parties.
In Los Angeles they are now going to ban new fast food outlets.
So now we tell people about nutrition in pubic schools, we don’t allow fast food in certain neighborhoods, and we are expected to care for them when they drive outside of their neighborhood to get their Big Mac.
Look. Have it one way or the other. We are paying tax dollars to teach people nutrition. If they graduated from high school in California they are required to know about calories and what they do for and to the body.
If they don’t accept what they are told it is their fault. It is not my fault. It is not the owner of a parcel of land in parts of Los Angeles that want to engage in selling a legal product. If they are going to ban fast food outlets then keep going.
Don’t allow supermarkets to sell bacon.
Make people wear helmets when they drive automobiles.
Don’t let young people play football.
Lower the speed limit on city streets to 25 MPH.
Force people to report daily for their multi-vitamin.
This nanny state of government is out of control.
This effort by the Los Angeles City Council was unanimous.
The people that dictate the menus in these places are the consumers.
