In the latest episode of “Banished!” by the People’s Republic of California, Governor Jerry Brown is likely to sign a bill that prohibits restaurants from offering anything other than milk or water with their kids’ meals, under the pretense of preventing obesity.
Effectively they’re telling parents they’re not capable of being trusted with their children’s health. It’s Big Brother Knows Best vs. mom and dad.
They want to control what little Johnny and Susie drink with their kids’ meal. If restaurants don’t play along they could be fined up to $500. So now California isn’t just the nanny state, it’s also the bully state.

To the liberal, these children have to be protected from soda and bad drinks. Yet to the liberal a 12 year old girl is an adult who can make her own decisions about abortion without parental consent.
But on the other hand , adult children are legally children up to age 26 for health insurance purposes.
If you think about it, liberals are the closest thing we have to the Taliban. No fun. No joy. No enjoyment of life whatsoever.
150 calories per cup of whole milk vs. zero for diet soda. Brilliant.
Except for the Taliban.................
Just another attempt by the California Democrat Limousine Liberals to drive the middle class out of THEIR state.
Your kids belong to us. Didn’t I read that somewhere before?
Live with snakes, expect bites.

Ice tea? Lemonaid? Fresh juice? Smoothie?
We banning root beer floats and malted milk shakes too? Let’s just kill all fun.
“150 calories per cup of whole milk vs. zero for diet soda. Brilliant.”
Logic and Liberalism do not mix well.
I’ve posted this before in the tread about the myth of cosmopolitanism ( http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3659672/posts ) and I’ll post it again ...
Red Tribe: just leave us alone and get out of our faces
Blue Tribe: oh, hell no!
Red Tribe: whatever happened to he can’t even run his own life I’ll be darned if he’ll run mine?
Blue Tribe: that was only about your lot trying to limit the sexual and narcotic life choices of our lot.
Red Tribe: so you want government to administer everything that isn’t about getting your jollies? Only that’s forbidden when it comes to common sense regulation?
Blue Tribe: you’re putting words into our mouths.
Red Tribe: then don’t seek to regulate things we consider important enough and leave us alone for a bit.
Blue Tribe: oh, hell no!
Well said. Everything the left “liberal” cabal (and it is a cabal with cultural elements) wants is intended to diminish freedom for most while empowering those that consider and call themselves elites.
They are control freaks and masters of deception that use their media to convince the masses that leftists are righteous and conservatives are evil.
Control freaks. Keep voting democrat California.
Progressive Government expands to fill any absence of government.
That’s what the advertisement says: You’ll be happy, have many friends, etc if you drink this fluid with artificial colorings and flavors, corn syrup, carbonic acid, and speed.
C’mon, man.
