First soda, now POPCORN: Bloomberg target nation’s favorite snack in obesity crackdown

First soda, now POPCORN: Bloomberg target nation’s favorite snack in obesity crackdown. We want to know if anyone’s checked Mayor Nanny lately to see if his elevator goes all the way to the top?

  • Hey when I retire I can one of Bloomturds new Soda and Popcorn Police.(NYSP PD)..."Step away from the Soda!" "put your buttery hands in the air, do it now!" Maybe I could go undercover and buy "extra large Soda's" with marked money and start smuggling large buttered popcorn in from Jersey....psssst hey buddy, You want a extra large popcorn with butter, 100 bucks and don't tell where you got it cause we know where you live.................

  • "Earlier at the meeting, it was revealed that the city's obesity crisis causes 5,800 deaths a year and costs taxpayers $4billion annually."

    I get sick of hearing the "public cost" arguments for nanny state regulations. Why are things set up so that somebody's obesity costs taxpayers anything?

    • That has ALWAYS been my question when someone says " This lame-ass health issue costs the taxpayers eleventy-gajillion dollars."

      WHY!?!?!?

      Because you nanny, Totalitarian, ass hats insist on stealing the taxpayers money to subsidize the stupid.

      Definition of Government: Create a problem, then glorify yourself for coming up with a solution that only creates more problems that you will find more solutions that create more problems for you to..................

      AAAAAARRRRRRRRRGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I HATE popcorn! The smell of it makes my stomach turn. That said, I would live on nothing but popcorn just to know that this puddle of slug piss had dried up and blown away.

  • He's beginning to remind me of the nutty dictator in "Bananas." Any day now, he's gonna come out and say something like "everybody under 16 years old is now 16 years old" and then NYC will know they have to call in the special soda truck and drive him out to the Twinkie farm.

    • Ya know, I was thinking exactly along those lines? Someone needs to call the headshrinkers on this guy and make sure he's got at least two marbles left to clack together.

      Hey did you say "Twinkie Farm"???

  • As I said earlier, all Bloomtard is doing is creating a black market. Most movie theaters make their largest profits off of concession sales, they rent the move from the company that produced it, and pay royalties every time they show it.
    So when even more theaters close down, it has a ripple effect on local restaurants, no movie, no dinner.

  • The movie houses should have a fit over this. Those big popcorns buckets they sell have got to be very profitable.

    Bloomberg you lipless grinch! Butt out of our private lives! You have no right or authority to do this.

    • Ticket sales at movie theatres barely cover the rental of the movie, food and drinks are what pay the bills.
