This is a test. Lets see how far we can over reach our power....when they push back, well think we went too far.This sort of thing is going on most every where, just doesn't get in the news.

Just plain stupid. How about we make cigarettes a half inch shorter? Or instead of selling sugar (in supermarkets) in 4 pound bags, restrict the size to 2 pounds. How about mandating that tortillas be half the size............But did you notice that they did not restrict the size of alcoholic beverages...............????????????/ so let them get drunk and drive home. What about Skittles, M&M's, Snickers, etc..........cut them in half too...

Someone elected these morons.

I think Taco Bell is already making the tacos a whole lot smaller than they look in the pictures.

NYC doesn't want anyone on a sugar high; that might be dangerous. OTOH, getting high on drugs, that is OK, just stop at any street corner for your high. Next we will see the courts imposing heavier sentences for selling sugar cubes than for heroin.
