The tax on soda doesn’t outweigh the costs of forced “free” government health care needed apparently.

“I want to create a civic environment that makes the healthier choice the easier choice in people’s lives, whether it’s schools, work sites, or other places in the community," said Menino...

Ming the Merciless would be proud.

I suppose this why I roll my eyes and laugh nowadays when people expound upon how wonderful America still is.

"I want to create a civic environment..."

Freedom dies whenever a politician thinks like this.

Mayor Menino has a constitutional right to be STUPID. He has NO right to force his stupidity on the citizens of Boston.

Boston Mayor Thomas Menino has banned soda, sports drinks and sweetened ice teas from city property, according to a recent government press release.

In an attempt to reduce the city’s rising obesity rates, Menino has banned all sugary drinks from city vending machines, cafeterias and concession stands...

Which is it, from city property (meaning employees or citizens with business could not bring their own) or from sale on city properties? Or both?

Copy editors and proofreaders must be hard to get.

Seems Mumbles wants the people to have no choice at all. Another small step towards totalitarianism.

I’m sure Massachusetts Democrats are very happy for this and are thanking Lord Menino for protecting them.

I will never understand what makes people such sheep that they meekly submit to this kind of fascism.

No concept of the slippery slope.

And this jerk mayor ought to be bitch slapped in public.

Try and ban sweet tea here in Dixie and end up a decoration on the closest tree.
