People Smarter Than Me Need To Protect Me From Myself!

Two of the most wretched communist hives of scum and villainy in The Peoples Republik of Kalifornia, San Francisco and Oakland, both passed “sugary drink” taxes last week. Berkeley, their next door haven of communists, passed a similar tax in 2014.

They argued successfully to the masses (with million$ in funding by anti-American Michael Bloomberg) that “sugary drinks” are a “Yuge” health hazard of epic proportions. They argue that “Big Soda” targets “children and teens” and that the products cause diabetes and obesity.

What a load of BOVINE EXCREMENT!

“Feel the Bern” Sanders, leader of the progressive movement is against soda taxes, but not for the same reasons as I am.

Shouldn’t the dietary choices of children be determined by their PARENTS and not by the government?

If it’s such a Yuge problem, why don’t parents kick the little coddled snowflakes in the backside and have them take a couple of laps around the block?

Oh right, in Oakland the kids might get shot by “city condoned” drug related gang activity which obviously is less of a health hazard since they haven’t done anything about that.   In San Francisco they could get killed by a felonious illegal immigrant as Frisco is a SANCTUARY CITY where they embrace their felons with open arms.

Back to sodas.  Whatever happened to personal responsibility and self control?

Here’s another question for the elite.  If sugary drinks are such a Yuge health hazard, why don’t they simply BAN them?  Note that the new law is a “small” tax on drinks.  A 1 cent per ounce tax won’t stop kids from drinking sodas.  It will only unfairly take money away from poor and middle-class families and give it to the government, to waste.

Get the freakin’ money grabbing nanny state out of everyday life! I don’t want or need the elitist Anti-American Patricians to PROTECT ME FROM MYSELF!

I’m going to drink an A&W Root Beer soda with REAL SUGAR for lunch today!

How Freaking Stupid Are We?

Kalifornia voters are going to vote tomorrow on a couple of stupid propositions.  Here there are:

PROP 56 – CIGARETTE TAX TO FUND HEALTHCARE, TOBACCO USE PREVENTION, RESEARCH, AND LAW ENFORCEMENT. INITIATIVE CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT AND STATUTE.

This is a $2.00 per pack tax on tobacco and nicotine bearing e-ciggies to help pay for “low income” healthcare.  The argument is that currently there exist a $3.5 BILLION healthcare crisis due to smoking.  Notice the initiative includes TOBACCO USE PREVENTION.  And how much more research do we need to do before we figure out if smoking is BAD for you?

The other stupid proposition is:

PROP 64 – MARIJUANA LEGALIZATION. INITIATIVE STATUTE.

Prop. 64 creates a SAFE, legal system for adult USE OF MARIJUANA“.  This is the exact wording from the pro argument on the Official Kalifornia State Voter Guide.

So I guess smoking weed is safe and smoking tobacco is a multi billion dollar health hazard.  How about we take the $2.00 per pack tax money and encourage smokers to switch to SAFE weed?  That will eliminate  billion$ in healthcare according to the arguments.

Or how about this plan?  Let’s use the tobacco money to give FREE weed to smokers to solve the tobacco health crisis.  How much free weed can we give away with $3.5 Billion?

“Smokers, time to switch from tobacco to dope.  It’s FREE!  It’s part of your Obamacare healthy living plan.  Not only will you be healthier, but you can F’up your brain at the same time at no cost to you”.

Oh wow man.  Someone pass me the bong, so I can understand this.

Can you hear my head banging on my desk?

Terrorism. It’s About Solar Panels!

Regarding solar panels and renewable energy, “This is critical for dealing with the crisis of terrorism.“, said Secretary of State John Kerry after committing the US to the Paris Climate Agreement.

I didn’t realize that if we give some solar panels to ISIS that the problem of terrorism goes away.  And according to Secretary Kerry, this is SCIENCE, not some fringe Trumpian fantasy.

Sheesh and all this time I thought it was a jihad or ideological battle of the Radical Islamists against their enemy the infidels.

I wonder if the San Bernardino shooters were given bigger Federal and California state rebates on some solar panels, if 14 people would be alive today?

If only the terrorists who flew the planes into the World Trade Center, The Pentagon, and Flight 93 which was thwarted by the brave passengers, only had the educational opportunities afforded by solar panels.  Never mind the fact that some were Saudis and had free education through college and that Mohamed Atta, the ring-leader, attended THREE UNIVERSITIES.  A few more solar panels could have prevented this growing global crisis.  You know, I don’t recall  seeing solar panels on Osama Bin Laden’s compound when he was taken out by SEAL Team 6.

I think Secretary Kerry finally revealed President Obama’s strategy on fighting terrorism.
