This is true people today do tend to depend on fast food way too much but it really all boils down to todays people and how we have change to the worse.
so money craved, that we lost sight of the little natrual resourses that are hands havent yet destroyed. We do have a lot of choices and thats why most of us as Americans could care less about nutritrional values and this is why this is such a conflict with opposing fast food resturants.
Why dont we just get rid of it all together,it brings no good.

“This is in no way meant to be permanent or to shut down existing businesses.”
Since you apparently missed it the first time, EXISTING BUSINESSES ARE PROBABLY BEHIND THE BAN. Of course the law “is in no way meant … to shut down existing businesses” — it’s whole purpose was to grant them a monopoly.

The “existing businesses” aren’t fearful more laws might be concocted that will affect them — their lobbyists probably wrote the law in the first place! They’re laughing all the way to the bank — minus a few bucks for the local politicians, of course …

The most memorable quote for me from the LA riots, after “Can’t we all just get along” was from a child who was upset by the arson:

“I can’t believe they burned down the Taco Bell!!”

I’m so glad that Taco Bell has returned for him, even if his elected representative is not.

Maybe they could try the approach of the clown who earlier this year wanted to make it illegal for restaurants to serve ‘obese’ clientele. It was somewhere in the South, but I can’t find the story. It was shot down quickly, but like horror movie monsters, bad nannystate ideas never really get killed they’re just waiting for the sequel.

What’s going to happen next is the schools are going to have open up so the kids get ‘Free’ dinners. And since the parent(s) have to bring the kid(s) you might as well feed them too. Geez, it’s not fair to those left without kids not to eat a hot dinner… so let’s just give everyone in that part of town free dinners. Or how about a good old Obama type plan – Why not take over these Fast Food places and just hand them over to someone that doesn’t have a job and such. After all the rich owners don’t deserve them!
