S.F. pushes legislation to promote good health
« on: August 04, 2008, 05:43:42 PM »
08-03) 18:02 PDT -- Last week, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors voted to make the city the first in the country to ban the sale of cigarettes in pharmacies such as Walgreens and Rite Aid.

And that's only the city's latest effort to make us all healthier.

The supervisors also voted to require chain restaurants to post nutritional information, including calories and fat content, on menus. This follows the creation of a program to recognize restaurants that don't use trans fats and an idea by Mayor Gavin Newsom to levy a fee on retailers of sugary sodas

That state needs to break off and fall into the ocean.

They won't be happy until the government controls ever single aspect of an individual's life, up to and including enforcing gay-only sex.

Why do the idiots in SF allow the government to steal all their rights?

Next up: a bill that replaces all of the toilet paper with three seashells, and to with appoint a blue ribbon committee in an attempt to explain how to use them.
