Chicago Moves to Ban Trans Fats

Tuesday, July 18th, 2006

I told you it was coming.

And it comes on the heels of Chicago’s smoking ban, and proposals banning foie gras and instructing cabbies to “dress better.”

This, from a city collecting corruption headlines by the day.

Here’s the idiot behind it.

Bonus points for a reference to “the children,” and for insinuating that prohibitions are what make a city “civilized.”

Hey buddy. You live in friggin’ Chicago. Were the 1920s what you’d call the epoch of “civilization?”
