Very interesting post, even for someone like me who lives in a #@*% nanny state

Here on the upper Left Coast, they outlawed trans-fats at the State Fair

That's un-American...The elephant ears and popcorn tasted like poo this year

A large percentage of the reason we have a nanny state is the large concentration of people who refuse to take care of themselves and exist to receive handouts.

Between these losers and the bleeding hearts who believe their hype and want to "take care" of their fellow humans we are heading down a slippery slope.

Those two groups are enough to swing any vote in this country. Seeing how politicians don't care about the good of the country just getting voted in, this is how it is going to be.

The worst enemy here is political correctness gone awry.

No one has the balls to tell others to grow up and be responsible for your destiny anymore.
