Nanny Knows What's Best For You
Ah, more Nanny State goodness. Chicago is considering putting a sales tax on bottled water. This is of course, after they ban foie gras. Now, maybe you find one or both of these things stupid, I sometimes drink bottled water, and I'll probably never eat foie gras, but again, this is a city that is basically undergoing a process of slowly stripping away as many rights from individuals as they can, and far too many other places are following the same pattern.
I'll admit, I'm even a bit iffy on how the animal is treated to make the foie gras, but I'm opposed to these bans, and I'm getting more aggro about opposing stupid bans more and more on the basis of combatting the Nanny State.
