When I see paces selling Buffalo chicken "pizza" I think the government should regulate pizza. What do you believe?

Of course the government should regulate pizza much more stringently. Because obesity has become such a common public health issue, the government has a duty to enact laws to protective us from this addictive pizza, lest we all eat too much pizza and gain too much weight. Second-hand weight gain is also a major public health issue, as it has been demonstrated that being in the presence of overweight individuals tends to cause an increased likelihood of weight gain.

If the government regulated pizza, it would taste like crap covered card board and cost $50 per slice. The government has regulated smoking, how’s that working out?

Actually is wasn't bad when the Feds underwrote the tobacco farmer, subsidizing them. Halcyon days indeed for the smoker! Now, tobacco is seen as a revenue raiser. And, the majority of the electorate must be catered to. So, we get taxed. Nothing personal in that, simply going after the vote I suppose.

So they go from paying them to grow it to mostly outlawing it. Brilliant huh?
