Well, it just makes sense to ban Soda in NYC. Given Bloomberg himself is the epitome of health!
It's all in the name of pursuing better health and combating obesity after all.
That's why the NYC air is pure, the water isn't fluoridated to kill the bacteria.And the Hudson river is so clean you can see the bottom, while looking out of an overpriced penthouse window.
Personally, I think it's all about control.
NYC banned cigarettes being smoked in Manhattan anywhere near "family friendly areas". Which translates to all of Manhattan. And yet, Cigarettes in NYC are still sold and bear some of the highest taxes in the country to boot.
People use to go to Delaware and buy cartons by the trunk full, since they were cheaper there. But that's no longer possible. Nor is it legal to mail cigarettes anymore, because people around the country were getting friends to ship them smokes from cheaper tax regions.
So now, folks make the "anti-smoking" industry, that uses synthetic nicotine in patches, gums, etc... and Big Pharma, who manufacture chemical medications promising huge side effects, just to get people to obey the laws that intend to stop everyone from smoking what is still allowed to be manufactured and sold at a premium for federal and local government taxes.
And since that's been a booming $uccess, NYC has elected to make soda the next target of prohibition!
Using the excuse, it's for the sake of fighting obesity.
Meanwhile, manufactured foods, preservatives, (when mayonnaise has a dry shelf life spanning years, and it's normal recipe includes egg's, oil and salt, there's
a chemical saturation issue that's anything but healthy!) toxic dyes, Propylene glycol (antifreeze & used in the manufacturer of polyester compounds) as a cheap sweetener & freeze damage preventative, while sodium laurel sulfate, toxic and used to manufacturer a "suds" like effect in products like toothpaste because people think suds means a product is working to clean something, the PC propaganda regarding any food ban's in the name of "health" is BS!
It's not about health!
It's about control.
Forced compliance under threat of law.
When people bow to demands they be prohibited from accessing or utilizing that which is still manufactured and sold, the level of fear programming sets a standard communication for the powers that be, so that policy can proceed on to bigger issues and more stringent restrictions later on.
Whereas,
a revolutionary demonstration in NYC Central Park, wherein thousands of people meet for an adults only
"soda picnic" while lit cigarettes burn in countless ashtrays, would send a message of it's own.
We the people outnumber them the politicians!
They can't arrest us all! However, if people comply under fear/threat of the law in matters of prohibition like soda and cigarettes banning, they
can control us all with our permission!
One

Freedom isn't defined as living by permission!
