The soda ban is actually really nice in my opinion. It doesn't really take away any rights, it's just there to make people a little more aware of themselves. In a slightly biased way, I kind of like how this is coming from Bloomberg, an independent. Regardless, everyone should be able to see that obesity is a thing just a little more after this "ban" [that doesn't take your American rights away really]; those who have seen the video we just saw should be a little more aware of the issue and may have (and will) researched the issue independently. Bloomberg used the word "forcing" to describe how he plans to increase awareness. By creating either a positive or a negative response, it was really his plan to create some sort of response to begin with. This was a very well thought out plan, rather than something a bunch of overzealous liberals who think they can eradicate obesity put together, in my opinion. I really have no objections to anything that was said in this video or by Bloomberg himself. Well done.
