Government taking to increase the amount of money they can spend. Government right to steal from one person and give to someone else because it means more tax revenue. Who can be safe from the Government saying that is an old neighborhood pay pennies on the dollar or take them to court if they refuse to take their deal. All paid with tax dollars.

IMHO, New York City Board of Health should be investigated to see if foods containing artificial trans fats are found within their residences, and if there are they should be forced to submit to a diet of tofu for 1 month per occurrence. I offer this proposal because it is for their own good.
