VERY nice. Ridicule is such a great utility -- especially when it is right on the mark, as in this case.
Locally, we now have a smoking ban (outdoors) on the beaches. (...on the BEACHES!) Cigarette butts and baby diapers were deemed to be the two 'most troublesome' items encountered during a recent 'beach-cleanup-drive'. (No, sorry, I have NOT heard of any moves afoot to ban BABIES from those same beaches... Go figure.)
...and yesterday I read that our chief proponent of Nanny-Government, State Senator Debra Ortiz (...she of "soda-pop-tax" fame), NOW has a bill in the state legislature to require (...YES, REQUIRE!...) all health insurance providers to pay for 'smoking-cessation' classes for all insureds in the state.
Of course, she doesn't see a THING wrong with her bill's obvious consequence (should it be enacted) of still-further-incrementally-increasing healthcare premiums (ALREADY deemed WAY too high by MOST citizens), for ALL Californians, whether they WANT such mandated additional 'healthcare-coverage', or not. (Is Anyone Surprised???)

You may remember her face...
