Killer Kandy! It's Time for Government Control
America is under attack by a brutal industry that peddles death for profit to the American people. Every day nearly 2,400 Americans are cut down by heart disease, nearly one every 34 seconds, creating the largest and most likely cause of death in America.
__________________Backed by addicted fanatics and corporate tycoons this industry targets not only consenting adults, but children as well, with $5 billion spent on Halloween alone. To solve this cycle of violence and fear I propose several steps: 1) A seven day waiting period on all candy purchases. This is to prevent emotion filled binge buying, allowing a person to settle down and reflect on what they are about to do to their body. 2) Back ground check to make sure they are healthy enough to eat the candy. Giving candy to an unhealthy person puts their life and the lives of others around them in jeopardy, and is not only unethical but should be illegal. 3) Ban high capacity candy containers. Why does someone need to have upwards of sixteen mints and/or Life Savers? These products only encourage dangerous eating behavior and no rational person has any use for them. 4) Outlaw the manufacturing, sale, and possession of certain candies that are so bad for you that they lack any reasonable nutritional value. These candies have only one purpose, to inflict bodily harm on those who eat them. |

Arguments against statism will always get a fair hearing from me.

I had this friend one time who got mad because he thought some guys were messing with his girlfriend. He drove over to the house where she was at where a party was going on and pulled out a big old bag of Snickers. Good thing his dad showed up just then, grabbed the bag of Snickers, and wrestled him into his car. Otherwise all those partygoers woulda started eating and it would have been all over, know what I mean. That's why I fully support the restrictions on candy you've described. All it takes is one careless moment, a ho-ho offered in a moment of rage, and some one's life is OVER. ![]() ![]() |

Wow, this is such a strong argument. Seamless...
You couldn't even argue that candy is just a "tool". ![]() |

hmmm, ponders how long it would take to make the rounds of all the shops so that supply never runs out. This means I'm gonna have to get a fake ID or get someone else to buy my candy. It's my civil right to have candy dammit ![]() |

If it wasn't for Green M&Ms I'd still be a virgin.

"Whisper it: non-smokers die too!" Well no shit sherlock, but people should have as much of a say in when as they can. This is what people like this don't get. I was in Austin last week and listening to talk radio, their local "freedom" movement talk show host spent an hour with other callers talking about why their movement doesn't get taken seriously. THIS IS EXACTLY WHY, articles and logic like this... |

For example, the smoking issue. You feel it's perfectly fine to put others at risk because of your habit. That's just selfish irresponsibilty, so the government wants to give those that don't want to breathe smoke the choice to do so. And you, don't care about their choice. That is just a small reason why so many don't get taken seriously. |
