UPDATE: Since the courts stopped this onerous Bloomberg Cola Law taking effect in New York – Mississippi, the most obese state in the union – is about to pass the “Anti-Bloomberg Act” which will allow every obese Mississippian to drink as much raw sugar as the possibly can to become even more obese than they already are. Which BTW, they don't pay for in Mississippi, for like most every state in the old confederacy Mississippi is a “Moocher State” using up more federal dollars than they pay in.
But this does hold the line for Republican politics, always, no matter what, DO THE WRONG THING. For the wrong reasons.
