Limit soda but not cigarettes. What a fantastic policy.Toxic-Seahorse

Freaking fascists.

Good. This country has a weight problem. I'm glad somebody has the balls to step in and doing something about it.

History's greatest monster. 

so what right do they have to tell the people what they can or cannot eat? this is a just plain moronic law.

there are more concerning matters in the world and this is what he's worried about, Soda? give me a f*cking breakFinalFighters

For clarity I will say that this is attached to the original Soda ban bill and it doesn't outlaw soda, but it does reduce the size you can buy in one container. That being said Soda is gross, but people have to come to that conclusion on their own. Can't force people to do anything, even if it is good for them. Look at the fools that continue to smoke themselves in the grave with Tobacco. You tell them, you show them, and still they want to f*cking do it. Just live your life and stop trying to police others, it's a waste of time!

Once again we learn something we all already know, Bloomberg loves to ban things.

These regulations are major bullsh!t, completely a breach of personal liberty. I understand the want to fight obesity and diseases like diabetes, and I could understand such regulations in elementary/middle/high schools, but this is the completely wrong way to go about it. This will not stop obesity or diabetes, you need proper health education to do that.

I guess mayor Bloomburg thinks it is his job to keep people from getting fat. 

Good for him, I wish Canada would do something like this. If people won't fight this sugary crap by themselves, someone has to. There are no positives to drinking soda imo. If you need a sugary drink, try some "real" fruit juice. As well as making PE mandatory throughout all of school and everyday.

That doesn't mean, though, that you should be lawfully allowed to eat whatever you want.thegerg

This along with the gun ban is starting to look like the coming of a new world order. Fightingfan

I understand that he wants people to be healthy. This, however, is not a good way to go about it :?.

While they're at it they might as well ban cars and make everyone start walking or riding bikes everywhere to get more exercise.

Also, no one person drinks a 2 liter bottle of soda. What if you are having a party and you want to get some pizza and 2 liter soda for everyone to share?

Bloomberg is a moron. What good will that possibly do besides causing people to spend more money on the big soda companies. Buying 2 16 liters instead of 1 32. ferrari2001

The reason people get the 32oz now is the psychological thing of wanting to have the biggest one.

Any way, they're not controling what people eat, they're only controlling the package size. You can stil buy and consume as much of it as you want.
