Living in a 'Nanny State' can be fun. Depends on who the Nanny is...

 If it's one of the Beverly Hills Nannies, that's just fine...  


But when it's somebody like That Biden guy, I don't know...
 
The Biden administration plans to propose a rule to establish a maximum nicotine level in cigarettes and other finished tobacco products in an attempt to make them less addictive, the White House Budget Office said Tuesday.
The rule, expected in May 2023, would be designed with the goal of making it easier for tobacco users to quit and help prevent youth from becoming regular smokers, according to a document released by the Budget Office. 
The proposal comes as the Biden administration doubles down on fighting cancer-related deaths.
They will never ban tobacco products - which would be the easy answer even though it would piss off a shit load of people like me - for one good reason. State and local governments collected $21 billion in revenue from tobacco taxes in 2021.
So much for looking out for our better interests, huh?

City officials crushed nearly 100 dirt bikes Tuesday, with Mayor 
Eric Adams saying he’s determined to eradicate the 
menacing vehicles from local streets.
In all, 92 of the illegal rides were pulverized under a bulldozer at the Erie Basin Auto Pound off Gowanus Bay in Brooklyn - as Adams vowed to continue City Hall’s war on the unauthorized recreational machines. The bikes are not street-legal in the city.
“The NYPD heard the call, and they did a Herculean task to get rid of these loud, intimidating and dangerous and illegal dirt bikes and ATVs that are on our streets,” the mayor said at a press conference.  
 

“For years, we’ve witnessed what happens when they go under control or we do not enforce. They continue to grow over and over and over again.
“And I’m not going to give up on my promise and commitments to rid our streets of these bikes and make all of our boroughs a place where people can move about,” he said. “As you can see from the number of bikes here today, we are making good on our promise.”

President Biden is expected to call on Congress today to temporarily suspend the gas tax during the summer months, according to sources familiar with the plan. Biden will ask that Congress assist in lifting the 18 cent tax per gallon on regular gasoline during the busy summer months. 
That sure as fuck will solve all of our inflation and supply-side problems, won't it? Don't bother unleashing the hounds and cutting restrictions on drilling on federal lands to increase production. These jackwagons will never understand the concept that ever-more regulations limit our abilities to produce anything. Juss' sayin'...

 "Brothers and sisters, I wanna see a sea of hands out there, I wanna see a sea of hands. I want everybody to kick up the noise, I wanna hear some revolution out there, brothers, I wanna hear a little revolution. Brothers and sisters, the time has come for each and everyone of you to decide whether you are gonna be the problem or whether you are gonna be the solution. You must choose brothers, you must choose! It takes 5 seconds, 5 seconds of decision, 5 seconds to realize your purpose here on the planet. It takes 5 seconds to realize it is time to move, it's time to get down with it. Brothers, it's time to testify, and I want to know...Are you ready to testify? Are you ready? I give you a testimonial...THE MC5"

Is better balance the key to a longer life? 

Middle-aged people who can’t stand on one leg for 10 seconds are 
nearly twice as likely to die within a decade, according to new research. 
Scientists in Brazil say the simple and safe balance test should 
become part of a routine health check for older adults.

  3. ...rule to establish a maximum nicotine level in cigarettes...
    1. and the executive branch has this authority from which clause in the constitution?
    2. won't address Fentanyl, killing over 100,000 per year
    3. and cannabis- schedule 1 (no medical use) and illegal at the federal level, but a cash cow and "medicine" in half the states.

    I have a cure for the incoherent and arbitrary exercise of government power: bring back Donald the Wrecking Ball and elect a thousand more at all levels of government to dismantle the administrative state and return power to the citizens.
