Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, who has tried to curb soda consumption, ban smoking in parks and encourage bike riding, is taking on a new cause: requiring New Yorkers to separate their food scraps for composting.

A cousin of mine and her husband have a cabin in the California costal mountains. At one time they considered installing a composting toilet until further research revealed such things are essentially updated outhouses that require endless servicing and urning of the waste. Bloomturd has come up with an equally pie in the sky idea.

And what is Bloomturd going to do with it once he has collected it???? I’m sorry, in the country or suburbs where it will be used it’s compost, in NYC it’s still garbage. Who will want it by the truck and barge full? It will wind up in the landfill, after giving a bunch of rats green jobs to sort through it and Bloomturd the sick satisfaction that he has gotten the ciotizens to comply with one of his edicts.

People should save their food garbage for a few weeks to let it get really stinky and ship it to his office.

Because he is a typical leftist elite liberal who, by ideology, wants to control people’s lives because his view of his own self-importance is so warped that he thinks he knows what is best for everyone else. This guy has a little Napoleon complex and massages his narcissistic ego by finding pleasure in telling others what to do in their personal lives. But he is just one little man. I blame the people of New York who vote him into office, for enabling his boorish behavior.

Even when liberals come to completely rational conclusions,
we often see them as “insane” because their starting point from which they reason is flawed and 100% upside down.

Bloomberg looks at the Utopia that is San Francisco and follows it’s lead.

I agree. Liberals are by definition crazy.

Mixed recycling? In your dreams! There’s the black bin for glass and tins, the blue bin for newspapers, the blue bag for cardboard and the orange for plastics. If Bloomberg gets wind of the scheme, NYers will find themselves up to their armpits in rubbish receptacles....

I have learned through my whole life that you are who you rub elbows with, so I have avoided liberals like the plague.

Is there anything Bloomberg isn't meddling in?

Sure. Militant fudge-packers -- hunky dory! Meddling busybodies, AOK! Moslem terrorists -- we CAIR, we really do!

Maybe Bloomyburger will mandate that diapers not be used,
and children should poop in flower pots.

YaY for Bloomyburger, he's saving our lives,
What would the world be without Bloomyburger!

The residential program will initially work on a voluntary basis, but officials predict that within a few years, it will be mandatory.

Of course, citizen. Everything that is not forbidden, is compulsory. T.H. White said that, in The Once and Future King. About a colony of ants.
